Pumpkin Patch

Family pic. on board the pumpkin wagon. No hay on this ride...

I call this shot a wagon full of trouble! Keeping warm with Mom.

Three little Northrups on one big pig!

Pumpkin Picking!

We all found the perfect pumpkins for us!

Climbing Stone Mountain

Stone Mountain HIke

Two weeks ago Dad and I were camping here... wearing tee-shirts and shorts! Boy, has the season changed! We were FREEZING! It snowed here in the morning and the wind was really kicking up! But to no avail, we still forded on and found victory atop the mountain!

... and we found some smiles along the way!

Camping with Dad

Dad took me camping again this fall with some friends from Cannon. It was great... just Dads and kids!

Here are some of us kids hanging out by the campfire, drinking coffee, chatting...

We went on a 5 mile hike!

Here are us girls at the top... Dads, up here! Come on, Dads you guys can do it! Can you keep up with your five year old daughters?

Raining Meatballs

Today, it rained meatballs at our house... well, not really meatballs, just small plastic balls: just as much fun and much less messy! (shhh... Don't tell Aunt Kristen that the weather in NC is so nice that we need to pretend that it is raining just to play with our umbrellas!)
