I don't know about you guys, but I did a whole lotta living over the weekend and I'm feeling pooped going into this week. It's definitely a multiple cup coffee morning, which feels about right going into a Monday.
Tiredness aside, it was a fantastic weekend filled with friends, family and holiday festivities. One of the standout highlights for me was a trip to
Craven Farm to pick out our Halloween pumpkins for carving. The farm itself is adorable and a lot of families came dressed up in their Halloween costumes, which was a hoot for people watching. They also have a fun slingshot tool that you can use to send miniature pumpkins flying into space (see video below). We will absolutely make this pumpkin patch visit a family tradition when we have kids someday. It's so fun!

Craven Farm's corn fields looked gorgeous against the stormy sky. |
