Fall Fun

I LOVE autumn.......it is the most beautiful time of the year in the Pacific Northwest

The kids didn't have school on Friday so we headed to Bauman Farms with The Maganas and The Wrigleys.  Bauman Farms is near the Woodburn Outlet Stores (amazing outlet stores....I avoided them this trip - very dangerous to your wallet) in Oregon.

It was kinda far away (1.5 hours), but OH so worth it.  The only thing I suggest is you get there in the morning when they open so you have enough time to do everything.  You really need the whole day.  We ran out of time and didn't get to enjoy everything.

So I am going to dump a bunch of pics of our fun adventure here in this post.

 I need two more kids.....really I do

 Group photo time...what's up with my camera being so out of focus???

 Ummmm...Kim we are not doing funny faces yet....

 funny faces pics are my FAVORITE

What a fun day.  My kids had an absolute blast.  We are going to have to go back.  Hopefully, we can go back when Corey can go with us. We only did about half of the activities.  

By the time I got home that night I was EXHAUSTED.  My body is so weak and out of shape.  My body, especially my legs and feet were so sore and worn out that I could NOT fall asleep.  It was so awful.  I ended up taking a bunch of ibuprofen and a few pain pills and finally feel asleep around 3 am.....only 5 hours to fall asleep.  I guess I need to start exercising again.  I guess laying around for over a year kinda messes your body up.  

But, all that pain was worth seeing the smiles on my children's faces....they are my heart and soul.
