Visit to Fort Valley

This past weekend we went to visit my parents in Fort Valley.  It was short, but a great visit.  We had perfect Autumn weather.  The foliage was not at it's peak, but the hint of colors were just teasing me all day.  The kids had a fantastic time.  They kept saying how beautiful everything was as we were driving up, down and around mountains.
They were pretending they were on a roller coaster, wheeeeee!

We started our day with breakfast.  Then we went to Mass.
Then we were off to find a pumpkin patch.  We found it next to this beautiful driveway.  I love the trees that line the road.  I told Coach this was my dream driveway.  I want one, please.
Sigh....Then it was off to pick some pumpkins.  I'll have to show you the pumpkins my kids chose, that's another post in itself.

I had to put B somewhere!
I went a little overboard with these pumpkin shots.  B's expressions are funny.  She was busy playing with the pumpkins around her and every time I could get her to look up, this is what I got.  What Mom?
My mom bought me some beautiful mums.  I love them.  She got me two of the bright yellow ones.  Thanks Mom!

Then we were off to the corn maze down the road.  This maze was a decent size.  We've never done one this large before and it had a game to go along with it which A was excited about.  I didn't think it was going to take long, but it did.  I had no idea where we were inside that maze.  We didn't even find all the markers we were supposed to find.  We took some shortcuts because the boys were getting tired.

We went off the beaten path.
A view from one of the bridges in the maze, pretty.

We were all tired afterwards.  We went and got lunch, had donuts for dessert and said goodbye to Lolo & Lola.  Thank you for a great weekend!!  Love you.
