Woznation

We’ve been loving fall around here.  It hasnt been too terribly cold yet at all, so we’ve been able to get out and enjoy the season here in the midwest.  We made it to Goebberts Pumpkin Farm as a family one afternoon:

By far the highlight of our trip was the corn playground — they filled this whole play area with corn kernels!  It was Wil’s favorite thing in the whole world (Phil liked it too):

We managed to get a semi-decent family picture before leaving:

We’ve also been spending a lot of time on ‘adventure walks’.  We usually write-up some sort of scavenger hunt, grab our trick-or-treating pumpkins and go exploring outside:

We’ve also made it back to the crabtree nature center a handful of times – the kids cant get enough of it.  Phil was finally able to join us one weekend:

We brought out pumpkins for a scavenger hunt one afternoon – but they stopped us on the way in and asked “by chance are you guys planning on collecting any items today”, to which i responded “whyyyyy thats exactly what we were planning on doing”.  But apparently you are not supposed to take things off trails in nature centers.  Oops.

I think Evie looks hilarious in this hobo picture in her hodge-podge clothing, playing in a little make-shift tent:

Then Phil and Wil headed back to Goebberts for a class field trip.  I didnt think I could handle taking both kids by myself, so Phil rearranged his schedule to be there.  They had a blast:

Giant pumpkin-eating dinosaur was a big hit:

We’re hoping the nice weather and pretty colors last a few more weeks! I would love to get baby #3 outside a bit before we start hibernating for the winter!
