Another thing that comes with fall is football season, please notice I did not add that to my list of things I love about fall =) Don't get me wrong, I don't mind watching a game here and there. And, Anthony isn't too bad about having to watch EVERY single game. But, he does referee little league football so that means a good bit of his Saturday mornings/early afternoons are spent on the football field.
I've been dying to take a vacation even if it's just for a long weekend somewhere to get away. The last time we have been on one (just the 2 of us) was our 1 year anniversary! Anthony and I are not big planners, but we had finally decided we would make a short trip to Greenville, SC. This vacation was planned about a month ago and Anthony had even taken a Thursday off. This is where procrastinating pays off...I had planned on making reservations on a Monday (2 weeks before), but ended up not booking our hotel room that day or the next. I had a doctors appointment that Wednesday, and that is the appointment where we were referred to the perinatologist. I remember saying to Anthony, "it's a good thing I didn't book a room, what if our appointment ends up being next Friday?" Well, who would have thought...that's exactly when our appointment was scheduled for. No vacation for us! By this time little league football had started and there would be no time to take a vacation until after it ends.
FINALLY...this past weekend the regular season for GFL football ended and we actually had a free weekend! I told Anthony I wanted to head towards the mountains to spend the day. We didn't quite make it to the mountains but we hopped on 985 and stopped at one of our (ok, probably more mine) favorite places...Jaemor Farms!! The last time we were there, it was the HOTTEST day of the summer but it was peach season =) This time of year apples are in so we stocked up on some. They also had a pumpkin patch going on, a corn maze, and some other things for kids to enjoy. Anthony and I both said we can't wait for Josiah to be at the age to enjoy that kind of thing!!

Before leaving the house I also looked online to see if there were any other things going on in northern GA and the Bid Red Apple Festival popped up. It's held in Cornelia, GA right down the road from Piedmont College. After Jaemor, Anthony and I headed up to Cornelia to check it out. They had tons of vendors with all sorts of crafts and baked goods as well as a car show going on. We spent about an hour walking around and decided we were both ready to head back towards home.
Before heading home we swung by QT and I grabbed a pumpkin spice cappuccino (I must admit I like them better than Starbucks' pumpkin spice lattes) and Anthony picked up a Muscle Milk. Once we made it home I think we finally realized how wornout we were! I must say it was nice to enjoy a Saturday, just the two of us, doing whatever we wanted!!
