Fall (2011)

We always love the fall and all of the outdoor activities that go along with the season.   

But this year our first activity was actually to enjoy the summer a little longer by taking our family trip to Florida.  We met our friends the K's down there and had a great week split between Tampa (beach/Busch Gardens) and Orlando (SeaWorld) using our wonderful "Grover" hopper passes from Sesame Place...they definitely paid off this year.  :)

After our extra week of summer, we embraced the fall, starting with our annual apple picking at our favorite orchard...Solebury in Bucks County.  Morgan's friend Kyran and his family joined us this year and we had a lot of fun playing on the hayride, running through the tree paths and snacking on their delicious cider doughnuts. 



We visited Sesame Street Place to enjoy their Count's-Spooktakular Halloween Festival...Morgan and her friend Kaya had a great time at the park dressed up in their costumes (Morgan decided to wear her ladybug from last year and Kaya was a purple dragon), trick or treating, riding rides, and enjoying the themed activities.


In October we celebrated Cousin Olivia's 2nd birthday in Carlisle.  Her party was a costume party... Morgan wore her witch costume and Mommy was her black cat.



Morgan had a lot of fun with Halloween this year...3 yrs is a great age to enjoy everything.  We went pumpking picking at our organic farm (Longview).  School had a costume parade again.  And we all had a great time trick or treating around the neighborhood.  Morgan was so cute in her witch costume! 


We ended the fall with a trip to Chicago for Thanksgiving to spend some time with the Reineke side of the family.  We had a great week and got to spend time with Papa and Grandma Key, Aunt Andrea and "Uncle" John, Uncle Tyler, Tanta, GG Princess, and Mommy's FL7 friends (and their bunch of boys).  We were so excited to announce to everyone our upcoming arrival in a 6 short months...hard to believe how fast that time has flown...and now we are already down to 3 weeks.
