Farm and Corn Maze

Today was a full and fun Saturday! I'll let the pictures do most of the talking since there are a lot. We started the day with a family workout. I ran 11 miles and Mitchell rode along side me on his bike while towing Audrey in the bike trailer. I was grateful for the company and the support! Looks like I am well on my way to being ready for the Haunted Half Marathon I'm running in 2 weeks! Here's my support crew. I wish I had snapped a picture of Audrey in the little trailer too. So cute!


After the ride Audrey was a champ and willingly took an early nap so we could enjoy the afternoon at a (semi) local farm/corn maze/pumpkin patch. It was a blast! Audrey ran around delighted at all of the new experiences to be had. I do NOT want to jinx myself but she is so good natured. It was a long day and although she was exhausted after 3 hours at the pumpkin patch, she was really patient and didn't throw a fit at all. I love being her mom!



I could hardly keep up with her, she ran around inspecting everything in sight!


This picture is my favorite recent photo of Audrey. So cute!

Climbing...of course.








I wonder what sinister plan she had cooked up with that corn husk?



Sad faces (I cracked a smile) because we found ourselves at a dead end in the corn maze.

The whole gang!

We also got to go on a tractor/ wagon ride. Audrey loved it. She also enjoyed the hot apple cider and pumpkin donuts. Isn't Autumn full of charm!?!

You are an amazing mom Melanie! The more I learn about you, the more I am amazed at how much you do! How fun that Mitchell and Audrey will go run with you. And I'm glad you guys had a good time at the pumpkin patch! Wish we could have been there!
