garage sales and pumpkins

Is it really Monday already? We had a fun & busy weekend but it went by way too fast! Ben was home this weekend so we made sure to do lots of fun things! Saturday was like garage sale mania around here. Our neighborhood, along with all the other nearby neighborhoods, were having garage sales. Grayson and I went out at 7:45. I'm pretty sure he thought I was crazy since I was dragging him around in his jammies and robeez shoes. He loved finding toys at all the houses we went to...usually it was toys he already has! Go figure. I did find him a Home Depot tool box with tools & a cute Fisher Price xylophone--all for $5! My favorite find though was this:

a train table for $30! My friend, Catherine, called me and told me that she had seen one in her neighborhood. I hopped in my &  it was mine! Well, Grayson's I guess.

We also had G's 12 month pictures taken (gasp) at one of my favorite parks. I had all these cute fall longalls in my head for him to wear...and then it was 84 degrees. Welcome to the South. Grayson had fun running around in the woods playing with sticks. I'm fairly certain he will be holding a stick in every.single.picture. I tried taking it away & HOLY MELTDOWN, Batman. So the stick stayed. Toddlers and their demands are so strange. 

I've been wanting to get some pictures of G at a pumpkin patch. We found a church that had lots of pumpkins and decided to let him run around and look at all the pumpkins. He had a blast! It feels weird wearing shorts and tshirts while picking out pumpkins, though. I need my cool weather back! 

We have a lot of pumpkins now & I have some projects (thanks to Pinterest) that I want to try with them! Hope everyone had a great {cooler} weekend!
