Huber's for some pumpkin pickin'
Friday afternoon we took the girls to Huber's to do some pumpkin picking. This is usually my favorite day of the year. I usually get them matching tees that look cute with jeans. I love the pictures with the fall leaves in the background and pumpkins for those fall moments. We got our pumpkins and the girls picked pumpkin ice cream for an afternoon snack. Adorable picture taken - check, pumpkins picked - check, fall treat eaten - check... We got back home and it was fine. Another fall tradition down, but it was the same feeling as I had at the UK game, it just isn't the same. There was this THING lurking. No matter how good Craig feels or how normal the day might seem it is still there... cancer. I don't know whether to try to shake it, make the best out of it or what. We said the first week of the diagnosis we are still going to make our plans and do the things that we love to do and just work cancer in. It won't define us. But it is always there...just not sure what to do with it. Other than to pray it just GOES AWAY, sounds ridiculous but that has been my prayer the past couple days, just make it go away.
It was good to be able to go. I thought we were going to miss it this year since we normally go at the beginning of the month to try to beat the crowd. It wasn't crowded since it was a week day.
Pictures to come.
