Magic Mountain

We took a short trip out to California this fall and decided to hit up Magic Mountain and the zoo for a change!  We had never been to Magic Mountian and had a blast.  I only wish it would have been open longer so Adrian could have road more of the big roller coasters.  He felt bad leaving me and the kids, so he hung out with us most of the time riding the smaller rides.  ( I personally  am not a fan of roller coaster anymore, in my old age, they make me sick!)
Batman told Cal to stand with his arms folded and act tough!  They were pretty excited to get a picture with him, I don't think they really wanted wonder woman in the picture though.

I think this roller coaster was the boys favorite!  They rode it probably 10 times! (They are in the front and Adrian is behind them)

Bella hanging out as the boys ride.

They are so grown up riding all these "big kid" rides all by themselves!

I know lame I don't know how to turn this picture around.
So these last two pictures is what happens when I am left with all 3 kids by myself.  I told Adrian to go and ride some of the big rides by himself while we went and got something to eat.  I was reading the menu with by back towards the boys.  Cal gets into my bags and starts taking pictures.  Too funny that these happen to be 2 of the pictures he takes.

Cade climbing on the tables while taking off his shirt.  What a great mom I am!  At least Bella was behaving!

Pumpkin Party

Every year my sister, Kristie and her family have a pumpkin party.  Her husband grows all the pumpkins in their garden, then in October they have a big party and lets everyone pick their own pumpkins, hang out have a photo shoot, and eat yummy chili!




We also got some other goods from their garden, Kylee and Caders carrying them to the car
My dad and 4 of us girls (we missed you Andrea and Wayne)


Grandpa and the grand kids
Kristie and all the wonderful food she made.  (she is so cute and clever!)

Apple Picking

OK so I decided I am going to play catch-up with some of the fun times we have had last fall that I never posted about.  I REALLY am going to try to blog more this year.   
This is from a trip we took up north to see family and decided to go pick some apples!  Here is our gang before we went on the hey ride





My handsome nephew with his apples!








Of course, Cade is eating his apples as he picks them!




Cute little Kylee kept Bella warm.
After we picked the apples, we had a little tour of how they make their apple cider.  I don't remember exactly what he was doing with Cal, but I think Cal is suppose to be the apples being loaded and dropped through the bag, one of the beginning process.
We had a fun time, but the way I look at it is, It's always a good time with spending time with family!  Thanks Behunin's for planning this activity!
