Visiting Family

So, a while back, one of my sisters and her family moved to Iowa. This puts them in easy driving distance, which is very exciting! When we found a long weekend where our schedules aligned, it was perfect! So I drove me and my boys over to visit, and we made the most of that long weekend!

We found a great rest stop to break up the drive there:

We visited an orchard/pumpkin patch/corn maze that had all sorts of fun things to do:

We decorated pumpkins (it's too warm and too early to carve them) and had caramel apples:

We hiked into the woods and visited a cave:

And, over the weekend, this boy fell in love with this dog:

So much fun! Alas, eventually the weekend was over and back to the city we went. But we're sure to be back before too long for another visit.
