The Fun of Fall Break

We did get to enjoy a short getaway for our Fall Break. We rented a cabin in Greer with some friends. The kids got along really well and the weather was fun! It was cool during the day and cold at night (FUN!) One night, we took a moonlight hike. The moon was almost full and the sky was so clear! Kids were a teeny bit scared (Kody: "This looks like the Forbidden Forest... like we will see Voldemort out here!"). We finally got a chance to wear long sleeves and even jackets! The leaves were so pretty on the trees (did I get pics though? NO! UGH!) The kids are all looking at some ducks on the pond.

A lesson on how to throw a horseshoe...










Morgan wanted to be wherever Kody was! CUTE!






Checking out the car...







Riding the quad... Thanks Grandpa and Grandma for letting us use it!



Making leaf rubbings (Great idea, Marybeth!)









More quad fun. It was a little crazy with Paige steering, but Caden did great on the breaks! ;) Hang on, Makenna!






The group...











Lots of fun collecting pine cones!









Taking a break on the swing out front.










Last quad ride of the trip. Goodbye Greer! Wish we could go more often!!
