fall break 2017










For fall break we were invited to go to St. George with some friends. But then Justin got a cold a few days before and the idea of driving for five hours did not sound fun to him. I don't know why?? :) Then Corbin broke his arm and that pretty much confirmed our decision to not go. Originally we had planned on doing a staycation (the kids favorite) so we went back to our plan A. 

On our 'Fall Live List' we decided that a corn maze was a must this year. The last time I went was fourteen years ago...it was haunted...there was a section that included a scene from The Ring...I freaked out and I hadn't been back to a corn maze since. This time we kept it fun and sweet with no freaky girl crawling out of a well.*shudder*

The little farm we went to was adorable! There was a zipline and slide that the kids LOVED! The actual corn maze was fun and adventurous, but towards the end some of the kids were ready to get OUT and head back to the slide. There was also some pretty cute displays set up. One included a typewriter and the kids thought it was the greatest invention ever :)

We also headed to Lagoon for Frightmares. We had gone a couple of weeks before and it was packed, like worse than Disneyland packed. We left after 15 minutes. This day was MUCH better. There were leaves everywhere and the air had a slight chill. It was a pretty perfect fall day ♥♥♥

We also went out to eat at a sit down restaurant, which is a rare treat. Justin and I were craving Mexican, the boys were begging for Chick-fil-a, Wendy's, or In-and-Out. We won and boy did they love the food. 










We spent Saturday working on projects. Downstairs fireplace!! And Sunday was a beautiful fall day. The only request for Sunday was to have chocolate chocolate chip muffins. It was the perfect ending to our long weekend. I just love fall break! ♥♥
