28 Days Day 1: The First Snow

Ok ok, we are a little slow on the challenge. But give us a break, this blog was almost ready we just needed to publish!

This winter has included a lot of firsts for our little brother. Back in early December we got our first bit snowfall, and everyone bundled up to go outside and play, Mason included. He put on his hat, mittens and snow boots and played in the snow for the first time. He LOVED it! We did not really know what he would think, Mom figured he would be cold and want to go inside, but he loved just sitting in the snow and watching it fall around him. He even tried grabbing a snowball and bringing it inside!




Of course none of us lasted long in the snow. We ate our fill of snow and ice then we all came in to warm up by the fire.

Fall Favorites: The Pumpkin Patch

Every year we take a trip out to the apple orchard and pumpkin patch. We always make sure to pick up our favorites: apple cider, apple doughnuts and apple for frah baked apple pie.






This year we decided to pick pumpkins from the pumpkin patch and carve them for Halloween. Mason fell asleep early and ended up sleeping the entire time, but we got our pumpkins and carved our little pumpkin family. Mom even dropped pumkpin scraps on the floor for us to eat. She tried telling us that if we eat the seeds a pumpkin plant will grow in our stomachs but so far no plant!
