Picking out the perfect pumpkin

She was excited that this one was little enough to pick up!!


Carving our pumpkins!

She thought the goup was a little yucky!

She called it "goof" It was so cute!!

Fall Festival at Burks

Sunday the 25th was the fall festival at Burks and we had a great time!!

Olivia loved bouncing in the bounce house and we could hardly get her out!

Fall Break

For my fall break we went to Pigeon Forge for a few days. My grandparents and parents were with us, and we had so much fun!We stayed in a cabin right behind Dollywood on the side of a mountain, and the views were AMAZING!!


Sunday we went into Gatlinburg and shopped and walked around.

and OF COURSE hit up the candy store!

Sunday night we got to go to the Dixie Stampede, which was a BLAST! I had never been before, but it was so fun! Olivia was mesmorized and didn't even touch her dinner!

We drank out of mason jars :)


Monday we went to Dollywood and Olivia rode her first roller coaster! You can barely see her little head poking out of the car. The height limit was 36" and she is 36"!


We also rode the flying elephants.


And she rode 2 rides all by herself!!!!

Tuesday we went to the outlet mall and shopped and then just hung around the cabin and relaxed, enjoying our last day of vacation. The cabin had a fireplace that was so nice to sit in front of and keep warm! It got down to 30 degrees one night, so we stayed a little chilly! We had a great time and would love to go back soon!

Back in the day...

Favorite Fridays: Fun Times with Big Ben!

These are just fun things that we've done the month of October :)

Ok well he did this toilet paper sculpture. He does weird things like this all the time! I just randomly find them around the house :) It does make me laugh.

Movie night last Sunday after Olivia went to bed!

CUTE MOVIE TOO!

Movie night again... just wanted to show off my Mickey Parts dishes from Disney World. Only 2 more place settings and I'll have a complete set of 8!

We went to the TN vs. AU game on October 3rd. It was very fun and I think he was pretending to punch me in the picture. This drunk girl sitting behind us kept rubbing Ben's shaved head because it felt good. Good thing he's used to random girls hitting on him. haha :)

Pointing out our differences...

Natural Beauty.
