"There is no more — a higher calling — than raising children who are kind, who live with grace and who are going to be generous human beings in the world. There isn’t anything greater than that."

Sunflower Fields

At the beginning of each season, we sit down 
over dinner and some wine and make a list of the
the things we absolutely have to do before it's over.


Every year we have the same classic ones
that we love and have done since long before
I even had kids... like visiting Roger's Garden, 
seeing Disneyland all decked out in autumn, fall dinners...

It's fun to cross off the traditions and carry them on.
It's my hope that the little ones will fall in love with
them too and get all nostalgic about them when they're 
older and want to carry them on with their own babies.

Trying the new stuff is necessary too, to keep it fresh and not boring.
One of our new things this year was to visit
Underwood Family Farms. 

It was a bit of a drive from LA but the kids rocked it out.





It was pretty much the same as any other farm or festival we'd been to...
had a country fair feel to it. They got to enjoy pumpkin pie and corn on the 
cob while listening to a country music band. My kids love live music so they loved this.

















We had 4 kids.
They were ran in all different directions.
Needless to say, we went back right out of the 
way we came in 20 minutes later...

At least we tried...right?

 

My favorite part was the sunflower fields...

Autumn at Disney

It's not officially Fall until you've seen Disney all decked out for the season.
It's one of the things we look forward to every year.

I even got fun outfits for the occasion. 









The day is never complete without a meltdown from one of them...





And at my beloved Disneyland... I adore Main St.

Ella was watching the lady make chocolate...
She decided that when she was big, she wanted to make
chocolate just like her. All on her own. Glad she's got big aspirations in life.



It was such a relaxing day... with cute outfits ;)
