Our Favorite Fall Tradition: Going to the Pumpkin Patch

Even though we chose one of the coldest days of the season to go to the pumpkin patch, we bundled up and were still able to totally entertain ourselves! We....

danced ourselves silly...
jumped in big piles of hay...

wished we were pirates, sane or deranged...

hugged our favorite people in the world...
went on a tractor ride over and over...

and over...
got a little cold on the hayrack ride...

fed some very impatient and hungry lamas and camels...

with our gloves saving our hands from the slober...

had some yummy treats...
rode some ponies...

and a train...
jumped on our favorite jumping pillows...

and got some air...

drove some bikes...
and were driven in bikes...
warmed up by the campfire...
ate dinner and played around...
and enjoyed being around all the people we love!

Volleyball and Football

This fall has been full of sports in the Kortus home. Brayli decided to try volleyball. She thought it was boring and hated every minute of it but faithfully went each week to please mom. Maybe in a couple of years when the girls can get the ball over the net more she will think it's more exciting! Tyler tried out for football for his school team again this year and made quarterback. It was a love-hate position as he was the hero when the team did well and the zero when they didn't but he loved every minute of it. He really wants to play in high school next year but we'll have to bulk him up alot if that's going to happen! Trent got on his year round soccer team again this fall and both girls are trying gymnastics and really liking it. I'll put those pictures up as I get them.


Brayli stops in the middle of her game to pose for me! So like her!

Her very last game she finally serves it over the net


Big Boy right behind you!
