Fall Extravaganza

Oh boy, how I love fall! Today we literally had a fall extravaganza. We have to take full advantage of the time that Micah is home all day, so we planned a fun-filled day with fall activities.

We started the morning off with pumpkin pancakes! Yum!


1 1/4c flour
2 tbs sugar
2 tsp baking powder
1/2 tsp cinnamon
1/2 tsp ground ginger
1/2 tsp salt
1/4 tsp ground cloves
whisk these ingredients in a bowl.

in a separate bowl combine:
1 c milk
6 tbs pumpkin puree
2 tbs melted butter
1 egg
mix well and fold the two mixtures together and make pancakes! This recipe will make about 10 pancakes and you can make 2 batches of them out of one can of pumpkin.

The wonderful cook!



Our buddy Brady dropped by (with his fun parents too)! Annalee took this picture of him! She also took about a dozen others, but this was the best!



Next, we grabbed some Chipotle because kids eat free on Sundays in October! Then we headed over to a farmer's market for some photo ops and to purchase our yearly mini pumpkin patch. The Wardlaws had joined us by now....always a good time.















At first, Grace was asleep, but I had to have her picture at her first pumpkin patch even if she was sleeping through the whole thing!

Next on the agenda...NAPS. We actually managed to get all 4 kids asleep at the same time. Meanwhile the guys watched the football game. After David and Annalee woke up it was cookie time!

Wow, what a day! Can't wait for more fall fun!
