Family Fun Day!

Our Saturday of a Family Fun Day was a rousing success. As Aidan said while we drove home, "Mom, this was the funnest day ever." Well of course, it was a family fun day, wasn't it?

We started at soccer where we cheered and shouted for Aidan during his match in humid 80+ degree weather. (Global warming? What global warming?)

Aidan enjoyed his first ever break away with the ball during the game. It was quite a moment for him.

After soccer, we loaded up the car and headed to farm country and an apple orchard. We borrowed a wagon, loaded up a couple of bushel baskets and picked apples to our heart's content.

Griffin loved his first whole apple:




Brennan declared his favorite part of the day was riding in the wagon for the apple baskets.


After we had more apples than we could ever eat or for more pies than I could possibly ever bake, we headed back out to find a pumpkin patch.

The perfect pumpkins were picked and a few baby pumpkins were brought home to decorate each of the boys' rooms. On the ride back home, we picked up a pizza for dinner. A perfect dinner to end our Family Fun Day.

We were all so tired from the adventures the boys were asleep by 6:30 pm. Family Fun Day does have its advantages. (Such as me on the couch with a big glass of wine and a DVRed Grey's Anatomy by 7 pm.)
