All things October :)

October was full of all things fall and wonderful :)

Rose and I had an ice cream date while daddy was working late...she completely demolished hers and some of mine!

There was another cute hairstyle, doesn't she look older (insert crying mom)!

We painted little pumpkins in the beginning of the month

We {finally} took a camping trip in the bus! I didn't know if 2017 was going to be the year, but she made it! We explored Hickory Run and it was close and beautiful!

Can you spot Rose escaping in the background? Where does she think she's going, we're in a boulder field :)

 We even had a great rainy breakfast and Rose has become quite the proficient chef!

We got a stash of new leggings from Nana including Halloween prints

And cute complimentary patters for Rose and I to wear together!

Although we have lived within a mile from our local fire department we have never been for a tour, until this year. We went down for Fire Prevention Week activities and had a great time learning to be safe!

Later that week we decided to carve the big pumpkins because we realized our weekends were quickly filling up!

In our house pumpkin carving includes power tools :)

Can you guess whose pumpkin is whose?

It was then on to birthday activities...that's a hint for figuring out the pumpkins ;)

I made my own cake with my two favorite helpers! No finished pics, but it was beautiful and tasty!

We ate the cake after breakfast with Nana and Pop (after all it's thanks to them I have a birthday!) and then spent the day at Knoebels!!!

 

And for being such a great birthday planner I picked Justin up some of his new favorite beer :)

We found lots of time to play...outside

and inside :)

We all enjoyed Disney on Ice for the first time...let me just say those skaters are no joke! I was absolutely amazed by some of their feats :)

Of course, when in Hershey, you go to Troegs!

Rose got to go mini golfing with dad while mom was at work

And they got ice cream afterwards

Roes has also made a sweet friend who we ran into while Trick-or-Treating :)

Rose enjoyed parties at school...can you find Rose?

We also had a great time trick-or-treating as a family. This was our first time all getting into the act, but i hope not our last! Rose got waaaaay too much candy which we will all be enjoying in the months to come :)
