Fun with Grammy

We spent yesterday afternoon/evening at Grammy's house enjoying the beautiful weather and some Fall activities.  The kids were excited to see snacks laid out upon arrival - witches fingers!  (Wish I had taken a picture)  They really enjoyed the short pretzel rods covered in green frosting (okay, and so did I)!

Grammy had lots of fun stuff planned and it all kicked off with carving pumpkins.  Who doesn't love digging out squishy pumpkin insides?!?


There was also some Corn Hole playing, hotdogs roasted over a fire, and s'mores.  We taught the kids how to roast the perfect marshmallows and enjoyed Katey waving them over the smoke so they would "have the perfect, smokey taste!" 

After dinner Grammy brought out a bucket and apples to let us all try some bobbing for apples.  Yeah, we are pretty sure we didn't do it right as it was downright impossible to get a hold of an apple apart from grabbing the stem with our teeth, but we all had fun trying anyway! 

The evening wrapped up with the lighting of the pumpkins.  Beautiful!!
