First Fall Weekending

We had a great little fall weekend... even though it felt more like late summer.

We got a sitter on Friday for Miss Annalee and took Mr. Ford out for a night on the town... to meet all our favorite bartenders. :) He was the perfect angel - sleeping through almost all of our outing - and made us remember how easy it was with just a newborn. 
TAPS for drinks and Bistro for dinner. 

Saturday we woke up bright and early to venture out to Rockbridge Fall Farm Day. It was SO much fun. We rode in from the parking lot on a hayride pulled by a BIG tractor - which Annalee loved! They had a corn maze, hay bails for the kid to run on, a big slide in the field, old time tractors, a kids train to ride, cow-milking and much more. It was such a fun morning - and felt as authentic as they come. 



Saturday afternoon the Hastings came over to play and watch some college Fooball. We are going to miss "the boys" as Annalee calls them. They are moving to ATL in just a few short weeks. :(

Sunday I took both kids on a walk solo for the first time... and we survived, sans double stroller. The verdict is still out on what kind to buy. I'm leaning towards a double Bob, but want to be sure we really need. For now we are just taking two strollers on a walk, just pushing Ford in one, while Annalee walks, or carrying Ford in the ergo. We'll see how long this lasts. ha! 

But we also enjoyed a little time at the new playground in the hood - it's so cool - and less than a mile from our house. Score! 

After naps we ventured up the road to Crozet to meet the Hollomons at King Family Vineyard for afternoon Polo and some vino. It was such a fun time... the girls ran and played, the boys just chilled, and the adults actually had time to sit and chat. Reminded me of the good ole days... and was exciting that we could still make it happen! 
Cheers to a great week ahead, friends! I am getting back into the swing of things at work... two events this week and a couple meetings. SLOWLY getting back at it. Ford is 8 weeks tomorrow... how is that possible??
