We planned on making it an annual tradition, but two babies later and some other "life" stuff and...we missed a few years.
But, this year we are back on track. So, here's the lowdown from
Day #1 of the Harvest Festival!

The "Chalk Walk". Here's Olivia working on her "purple mountain majesties".

You know what you really need? A balloon pump!:) I love your family pics, is there a way I can order 1 5x7? Beautiful artwork! That's a fun tradition that I think the kids will remember for a long time.
