Apple Jacks, haircut and fun at the park

On Saturday morning we decorated our pumpkin and instead of carving it we used Mr. Potatohead pieces.  The kids loved it and it was way less messy than our normal route!

Then we decided to head to Apple Jack's Orchard as Madelyn had a blast at Minnetonka Orchard earlier in the week and we thought Jack would enjoy going as well.  It was cooler in the morning but we still had a great time.  We ate apple donuts (so yummy!), went down the slides, climbed on the tractor, visited the petting zoo, played in the corn pit and took a ride on the cow train!

 

 

On Saturday afternoon we decided to stop in and see if there was a wait to get Madelyn's hair cut.  She has only had 1 haircut and that was when she was 18 months old.  She has been so excited to get her hair cut since she's been along many of the times we have had Jack's haircut.  Much to my surprise there wasn't a wait at all so we got right in.  She got about 3 inches cut off but you can hardly tell as her hair is so long.  She did great and didn't cry one time even when it was snarly……she cries before I even start combing her hair so that was a huge improvement :)

On Sunday afternoon we met the McCormicks at the park to release some energy!  We went to a park by their house which Madelyn refers to as "Evie & Teagan's park".  It's actually my favorite park as both kids can do some many different things……and it has swings.  It was a gorgeous fall afternoon!  As we were getting ready to leave, Max showed up!  He was there with his friend but it was such a fun surprise!  Madelyn just lights up - as evidenced in the picture below - whenever Max is around!  Max is always pretty happy to see Madelyn too :)  It was a perfect fall weekend!
