Mark and I had a super fun Fall-filled weekend! We also did a lot of first's (for me). We started off the day with lunch at Chipotle! Mmmm...
Then we headed to Forneris Farms in Mission Hills, California for their annual Harvest Festival!
Supposedly, it's the best place for fall festivities for families out in So-Cal. There were lots of families there with cutie pie kids. But we got to spend the whole day just the two of us...no diapers to change, tired and cranky kiddos, or having to hurry home for nap time. Benefits of life without kids! :)
We ran into my old friend from the Northridge ward and also saw the Heder's from our church. Guess it is the cool thing to do!
My first ever corn maze! A part of me wishes it had been at night and haunted, though we still had a great time! And Mark, the scaredy-cat, appreciated the lack of monsters and corn people.
They had a little dinosaur scavenger hunt throughout the maze and if you correctly identified all 10 dinosaurs, you would be entered into a drawing for $100! Mark was hooked. He had some sort of strategy for where they had placed all the dinosaurs so I just blindly followed him and took pictures, ha.

We were super thirsty after all that walking. I wanted to go to Dairy Queen but Mark wanted slurpees. I told him I'd never had a slurpee so that did it. We got slurpees! They were DELICIOUS!!! So icy and cold!!!
Then we headed home to relax for a bit before going over to Birk and Al's to do laundry. They weren't there so we made ourselves at home and had a Halloween movie marathon! The Addams Family and Casper!
Then we came home and made homemade pumpkin pie! It was so late though we didn't try it until the next day. SO. GOOD.
Next weekend should be even more fun! Trunk or treating at the church, passing out candy with Jake and Sam and taking them trick or treating! And then...good-bye October! Hello November!
What FUN!
