I heart TX!

We decided to accompany Tom on a road trip to Austin, TX this past weekend. He was headed to Austin City Limits so we tagged along to visit one of my favorite Army wives, Michelle, and her daughters Cadence and Kennedy. Ella was thrilled to see them and so was I. We took the girls to a local pumpkin patch at SweetBerry Farms. Our day was spent painting pumpkins, going on hay rides, picking flowers, a picnic lunch and we ended it with choosing a mini white pumpkin and some homemade delicious pumpkin ice cream. I absolutely love fall specifically because you can find anything made with pumpkin. Yum:)

What is better than a field of candy corn? Hmm a field of real candy corn.

Painting pumpkins!

My child uses two brushes. I think she didn't want to share.

Love this sweet photo

Me and my girls on the hayride!

Picking flowers...reminded me of our days in Germany with the wide open flower fields and you cut your own bouquet. Beautiful! Ella loved it and would have spent all day there if I let her.

And this is how we got around that day:)

Strawberry ice cream for the girls and pumpkin ice cream for the mamas.
