A favorite fall tradition is going to Scarecrow Farm! It's about 45 minutes away from us but it's worth it to go once each fall. We've been going since 2019 and it's fun to look back on the pictures from it each year and see the girls grow. They had this new cute photo wall this year!

Morning on the Green 2025.
We had fun at morning on the green! It's a kids carnival type event that our local college puts on every fall for homecoming- it's a special fall tradition! I even remember going to it when I was younger when we were visiting my grandparents. They have a bunch of games/stations that different dorms and college groups put on.
Norah really wanted to wait in line to get a flower henna tattoo- it was cute!
Some of our favorite games! Plinko is a winner.
Plinko is Ellory's favorite because a couple years ago she got two 10s and everyone went crazy.
The toilet toss is another favorite from when the girls were younger that we have to keep doing every year!
The football throw is Lucy's favorite.
Norah's favorite is limbo.
What a fun morning! Go NWC!

Fall weekend in Des Moines.
We had a fun weekend in Des Moines! We went to Center Grove Orchard with my family for the first time and had a blast! Wow, its huge! We stayed for hours and we didn't even see the whole place. We enjoyed the corn maze, train hide, hay ride, jumping pad, slide, corn pit, giant bubbles, duck races, and more!

We celebrated my sister Kayla's birthday! We also gave our birthday presents to my brother Keaton and niece Margo who have birthdays in the coming weeks too.
My sister Kayla ran a half marathon on Sunday- what a beast! She did a great job and we are so proud!
It was fun to be there to cheer her on!
Finish line!
Go, Aunt Kayla, go! It was such a fun atmosphere around the finish line!
We also got to see cousins Jorie and Murphy in their baseball game!
