And I love that I live in a place where I can experience the season.
This month we took our first solo (family of 5) trip to Boone!
It was so nice to be back up there, eat at familiar restaurants, see familiar sights, sleep in a cozy house with no A/C and experience it with my people who had never been there before.
Eli continually talks about our “mountain house” and how much he misses it.

Everyone did their best walking and keeping up.
Eli was behind me the majority of the time and I always knew he was with me because he talked the entire time. 😊
After a short break in the afternoon we headed to Blowing Rock for dinner and ice cream!
I am so glad we could enjoy this time away as a family.
In North Carolina the fall also brings the Fair!
I don’t think I’ve been to the fair in over 10 years but it was just as fun as I remembered.
As we drove into the parking lot Eli saw the large Ferris wheel so that was his one and only thought as we walked through the gate.
We went to the fair the first day so the animals had lots of energy.
I think Hannah could have watched the chicks for hours.

It was a fun-filled day at the fair and an excellent fall activity.
It is a blessing to live close to fun places and family. We have loved being able to see grandparents often, especially since Hannah has had many, many starter doctors appointments and Mawmaw has helped watch Suzi during those times.
As we approach the “month of thankfulness” I must say we have lots to be thankful for.
Even though a move is never easy we have seen the Lord’s hand in so many ways.
