Fun fall activities!

Misty Meadows Creamery!
Jon had the day working at home and we stole him away for a few hours at the farm!




Decorating Pumpkins.  We bypassed the carving and painting this year and went a much easier route!  I loved it!  They have this awesome ribbon factory in Hagerstown and they have the most random things for sale.  So in August they brought out these cute pumpkin decorations and I splurged and bought one for each of the kids!






Pick you own pumpkin patch~  They are so cute but sooo over priced.  We got to the checkout and one pumpkin was $15.00.  Can you believe it??
 Yeah we put the big ones back.. Aldi's market has them for $2.99!
Since I can't do any price matching here, I have the find the best deal I can by store traveling.  It's annoying.  I love Aldis though!




Hunter's Baptism

We gave the Hunter the choice to have his baptism in Maryland and Utah. It was a HUGE decision for him. Ha it was funny. 
He finally chose Utah after feeling very bad for his "Poor friends in Maryland who won't be able to see the Baptism."  He really wanted Grandmas and Grandpas to be there.
It was a really nice program. 
 Here's a few of the things from the program:
Opening prayer: Grandpa Forman 
Talk: Baden (his cousin) 
Musical number: Hanna sang the Baptism song 
Talk: Hunter 
Talk: Jon  
Closing prayer: Grandma Harris

He chose to give a talk because he saw his friend her give a talk at his baptism.  He told himself that if Ryan could do it, so could he.  He planned a little bit but when it actually came down to the day, he had 3 questions written down on a piece of paper.  Why am I getting baptized?  What does being submerged in the water mean? and What did I learn from seeing Ryan get baptized?
Out of those 3 questions, he gave a 10 minute talk.  It was amazing. He was confident and bore his testimony that he was doing what he knew was right and told us why. I was so proud of him. What a great example he was to all of us!



Gardner Village

We made sure we made a quick stop at Gardner Village while we were in Utah.  They had just put their witches out!  We don't get the grandkids together very often so we were very picture happy!

Hanna is my little poser!

 Ky and Hunter! Best buddies
