Noccalula Falls

We took advantage of the beautiful weather and headed to the Falls to meet some friends for a picnic and a play date! We are so thankful to be so much closer to our friends in Huntsville! It's a great almost half way meeting point and the perfect spot for a fun day outside! The Falls has an awesome playground that has something for all ages and great seating for the mommas to sit and chat while the kids play! They also have a ton of covered picnic tables so we enjoyed a nice lunch before boarding the train to take us to the petting zoo!

 They have everything decorated so pretty for fall! Every year, the Falls decorates the park with a ton of Christmas lights so I thought it was neat in how they decorated for Fall.  They already had one of their big Christmas trees up but had it decorated with Pumpkins and other Fall decorations!

 The "big" kids waiting on the train!! Next year, there will be 3 more kids waiting! Megan is expecting twins in March and Walker can join the big kids by then!

 Sweet girls! Owen and Izzy were too quick for us to snap a picture of them!

 Walker enjoyed his day at the Falls too!

We had a wonderful day followed by a quiet drive home! The kids were so tired that they even took another two hour nap once we got home! Usually if they fall asleep in the car there is no chance of them laying back down.  :)

Be still my heart

I am in LOVE with these pictures. I seriously can't stop looking at them! The photographer put these pictures on fb as a sneak peak! I CAN NOT WAIT to see the rest of them in a few days!!! :) All three kids behaved so nicely on the day of the pictures and we had beautiful weather!

 Owen worked the camera like a pro!
Image
 
 Little did we know Grace Ann knows how to work to camera too! ;) I thought she was going to be the one where we had to stand on our heads to get a smile out of her!!
Image
 
Walker did great too! He is such a happy, smiley baby!!

Owen started Preschool!

Owen started preschool on Tuesday at Golden Springs Baptist Church! He was SOOO excited to go and had a wonderful first day! I was so nervous about getting all three kids up, fed, dressed, and there on time that I didn't have time to get sad about him going! :) He walked right into his classroom and was ready to start his day!
 
Ready for preschool!!

We made his teacher a special treat!

 Nana got Owen a backpack for his birthday and I monogrammed his name onto the front of it.

 We got to school early to pick up Owen, so we waited outside for him.

 We may have been hiding in the bushes taking pictures of his class coming in from the playground. (I was not the only parent doing this!). I love watching the kids interact with their friends and other adults when they think I'm not watching!
