Fall fun with friends, fields and pie!

Nothing like a little away time with the best friend and some sweet old college buddies thrown into the mix. Melissa and I had an overnight getaway in Little Rock last weekend. I met up with Paige and our friend Courtney for lunch on Friday before Melissa and I met at the hotel to get our weekend started. We went to a Kari Jobe concert and then ate at all our fave places and shopped for Bibles for our boys, clothes for our fine bodies and dreaming of Christmas at Hallmark. We are a lively pair and we love it like that 😉 I am so blessed to have Melissa as my forever best friend.  I can’t imagine doing life without her. She is always constant, loving and accepting. I love that girl! 
Henry got to stay with Nana and Papa while I was gone because Randall was harvesting. Henry got to pay a visit to the plot closest to our house though and Randall took these cute pictures of our big guy. Henry adores his daddy and his work. 
Fall fun is in full swing around here. Henry is out of school Friday so we will visit a pumpkin patch that day. We have a Sunday School party at a local pumpkin patch Saturday night and trunk or treat at church on Sunday. Next week I’m heading up the Halloween party at his school and we have Halloween trick or treat fun on Halloween . Henry is going as Elvis! 

With fall comes baking. Henry’s sweet teacher let each of them dig seeds out of a pumpkin and then seved pumpkin pie one day last week. Henry came home praising the pie she made and said we needed to make one with “that cinnamon”. We decided to make one today after school. I opened everything for him and he poured and stirred himself. He cracked the eggs too. We baked it and then we put spray whipped topping on our piece that we shared . It was fantastic yummy fall fun. Anything with spray whipped topping is fantastic, according to Henry!

Celebrating and decorating with purpose is my favorite thing to do. When I am not filling a tree with ornaments or throwing a birthday party for my golden doodle, I am being mom to a super cool tween son, the wife to a fine blue eyed man and selling real estate. I call northeast Arkansas home and when I am not loving on my people or celebrating in our space, I am using words to express myself here or on my podcast. Be sure to follow me! I am the co-author of a blog called Life with My Sister and have a podcast called Abby As-Is. You can also follow me on Instagram, Facebook, Pinterest and YouTube.
