Kennesaw Mountain

Kennesaw Mountain was one of the battlefields of the Civil War as General Sherman marched to Atlanta. It is now a national park with hiking trails that follow the paths the soldiers took. There are even some cannons and earthworks that were originally used. Yesterday we went exploring and enjoyed some fall colors!

We started with a picnic.

Then went to the top of the mountain. You can see all the way to downtown and to Stone Mountain. Isaiah loved climbing on all the rocks.

Pumpkins and More Pumpkins!

The weather was beautiful all weekend and we got out and enjoyed it! Saturday we went to the Stone Mountain Pumpkin Festival.

Isaiah decorated a pumpkin scarecrow

They have a lot of pumpkin people dressed up all over the park - this is our favorite!

After we got home we had pizza with cobweb cheesey bread!

Park & Cupcakes

Yesterday we went to the park with some friends. I brought cupcakes in honor of Isaiah's birthday. They were a hit!!

Hot Air Balloons

On Saturday night, at the Ranch, we saw our first hot air balloon glow.



Rock Ranch

On Saturday we went on a short road trip to The Rock Ranch. The day was so beautiful, as was the ranch, that I couldn't help taking a few pictures before we started exploring :)

The rest of the day was filled with....

...a corn maze

it only took us about 30 minutes which we thought was pretty good :)

...tiny town- this little village was a bunch of buildings like from an old west type town. The neat thing they were built small children's size. Isaiah had so much fun!

the hotel

the pharmacy

the church

there was also a police station, court house, firestation, movie theatre and a school. Super cute!

...a cow train

...a corn box

...motorized tractors- this was Isaiah's favorite activity. He didn't even seem to mind standing in line for a half an hour. He loved to drive (and run into things!) Don't think we will let him behind the wheel anytime soon :)

In the evening they had a hot air balloon glow....pictures to come in next post!
