Go Blue!

Last weekend was the official start of the fall for me. Why?
Because we went to the the cider mill in Dexter for the first of MANY times this season and we took the boys, even Carson to their first University of Michigan football game. One of the fellows Jason works with has had family tickets to the games for years and happened to have 6 extra on Saturday. So, we decided it would be a great time to take the boys. My sister Jocelyn was here visiting so she come too. We left her boys and Ellie at home with a babysitter. :) And actually, Noah would have probably enjoyed the babysitter too. Michigan won!!!! It was great. We had a really fun time there, despite the hot weather. Jackson and Noah had a great time, or I should say started having a really great time when we were ready to leave. The student section really got the "wave" going and Jackson was loving it. (I was too). Carson did great. Half the time I never even know he's around. I am lucky he is so easy.
Here's to a season of cider, fresh doughnuts, football, and gorgeous walks in the neighborhood. And jeans and sweatshirts! There is nothing I love more than the start of fall. Even down to changing out my decorations. Is it too early to get out my Halloween????

barf- wish we were there. I hate flight vouchers and black out dates. Seriously.

Very fun! I love all the Michigan t-shirts. And, it's even better they won! I'm so excited for Fall, too. It's the best time of year. I love your Halloween decoorations! You should pull them out as soon as possible. :)

So fun! You are brave to take any kids. My boys usually make it to about half-time and then they are done. Your post about Jackson was super sweet. Kindergarten is a complete heart breaker....And carrots? Seriously...on the first day? Give the kids a break, how about some cheetos and fruit snacks? No doubt, it is so hard to see them grow up.

That looks like so much fun!!! You are always so adventureous with your kids. I need to be more like you! Tell Jocelyn that I said hi, oh, and I posted a bunch of pics on facebook of my kids, if you want to see. They're under my married name Andrea (Zwick) Fredric. Talk to you soon!

oh, pinch the boys cheeks (I am talking about Carson). I though we had started on fall weather here, but we are having a mean little humid streak, so no fall yet. It had better be soon though, because I am going to set up my halloween stuff.

I'm jealous of everyone's "hooray for fall" posts. I love fall more then any other season. But it's 85 degrees here everyday and humid humid. You guys are so cute all together at the football game. What a fun family time.
