Fall

We had a very busy fall, but still made time for fun! Landon went to the pumpkin patch where he picked out pumpkins, had apple cider and found out how amazing donuts are! He went to Boo in the Zoo and tried to get his face painted, but decided he didn't have time or patience for that. Instead we visited the animals and ran around a mini corn maze. We carved pumpkins at Grandma Plite's house and dressed up as a bat and went trick or treating for the first time. He actually wore his costume all day- including the hat! This boy has a major sweet tooth!

Frederik Meijer Gardens afternoon

Who puts mini pumpkins and apples all over the floor as decorations? They must not have kids- or a boy who is obsessed with apples!

I guess there is a zoo in Middleville?

and they have an alligator!

Rock!

Landon went on his first train ride for his birthday and got to drive a fire truck!

Last few Michigan beach days

We took a last minute trip to Holland beach to soak up some sun. Probably our last time on the beach for the season and before we move!

Southern Living

We found a house! I'll admit, it looks a little like a cabin in the woods, but it's actually bigger than our house in GR and has close to a one acre lot. It's on a shaded quiet street and has a great backyard. We cant wait to make it our own in a very practical, inexpensive way; because let's face it- we're pretty much broke :)

Our new address is 713 Wendy Way, Durham, NC 27712 and the official move date is November 23rd.
