Fall Fun

Blake and I had a wonderful evening tonight

checking things off of our Fall Bucket List!

We headed out to Atl' Do Farms

which is about 15 minutes outside of Lubbock

for some fall fun.

They had tons of things that we enjoyed.

We were the only people there without children, ha!

But that's okay.

It will be soon enough

where we will be chasing kids around

and doing everything that they want to do,

so we are enjoying fun things that we want to do

while we can actually enjoy them!

They had a few farm animals

that were the most people friendly animals

I've ever been around.

The pigs couldn't get enough of BEG....

everytime he'd stop petting him he would oink like crazy

and head butt the fence, ha!

Cute little goat

And sheep

And this cow was crazy....

Wouldn't stop mooing, started peeing while being pet

and would chew on the fence when you stopped petting her!

They had a hayride that took us out to a

pumpkin patch.

Ready for our hayride!

Pumpkin Patch....

They planted 30,000 pumpkins in September

and there were fields and fields of pumpkins

You could pick your own pumpkin for $1

so we were sure to pick the perfect one!

Pulling it off the vine

Cleaning it up

Our cute little handpicked

pumpkin!

Then for another $1

we decided to try the Corn Cannon;

hysterical.

This thing was extremely loud

and shot the corn way further than one would think.

We got 3 shots.

I hit the Free Drink sign 2 x's

but somehow never got my free drink,

boo.

We then headed over to the Corn Maize

which was fantastic.

This year's maize was

none other than Lubbock's own

Buddy Holly.

Each year the maize is different

but somehow related to Lubbock or Tech.

We were a bit confused on which way to go

so we stopped to enjoy the sunset!

Woo Hoo,

we found our way out!

(and good thing b/c it was starting to get cold

and I forgot my jacket at home and had to borrow Blake's)

I hope y'all are enjoying the cooler fall weather as much as we are!

It snowed here on Thursday

which was a nice reminder how cold it gets here so

we definitely are trying to cram in as much outside time as we can

before we are stuck indoors all winter.

BEG is headed to Denver tomorrow morning for a SPE conference.

It is low of 20's high of 50's there

and he can have it!

I am not ready for winter just yet....

Hope everyone has a nice, relaxing weekend.
