This is my most favorite time of year!
While Autumn does not officially start until later in September, I like to start in August and keep the fallness going until Rose's excitement for Christmas cannot be deterred.
We started off the month with one of our favorite activities...camping. This was the first trip out for the bus and she made it (stay tuned for when she did not make it).
Just made some nice upgrades including a jump seat and table, both of which Rose has claimed :)
We also got another bike ride in and love logging miles while the trees are changing colors :)
We did get a little rain, but we've learned how to make it work and were able to stay dry!
We followed up a weekend of camping with another weekend of camping!
During the week we are busy with school and work. Rose also has piano and dance classes along with homework during the week, but the weekends are for family time and we try to get the most out of every moment :)
Rose also enjoys when we have 'happy food' while camping, so why not!
It was a nice weekend and the bus didn't break down...wait for it...it's coming....
So the next weekend we joined Justin's family in a trip to Knoebels. Despite that face, Rose had a great day with her cousins :)
BUT THEN...at about 1AM and 10 minutes from home the bus stopped...Rose was a trooper and made some great videos all about what happened. We had a very nice tow truck driver who took us all home :)
Not that much can top that, but another weekend was coming and more adventures awaited :0
We made it to the Oley Fair and enjoyed rides, music, and food :)

I am so glad that this little one enjoys milkshakes and fries like her mommy :)
And Rose ate her first Italian hoagie with all the toppings!!! Look at that hoagie love :)
On Sunday we visited with Aunt Kate, Uncle Jon, Ellie, and the twins. Rose was soooo happy to be surrounded by all the little cousins.
Dinner was a success with everyone in charge of a baby or kiddo :) I don't know how Kate does this every day!!
Ellie was so happy to hang out with cousin Rose :)
We started the next weekend with SCIENCE!
Friday evening we attended family science night at the nature place.
On Saturday we got up before the sunrise to head down to Cape Henlopen for one last beach day this year. We had a camping trip planned, but the weather was beautiful and Rose and I needed sand in our toes :)
We ended the day with dinner at Rose's favorite brewery, Crooked Hammock. They have the best outdoor area with lots of hammocks, music, and food.
On Sunday, we took it easy just hanging out around the house plus a trip to Dunkin Donuts and the dollar store to get supplies for more science experiments.
Ahh, we enjoyed September and October is looking like tons more fall fun!
