U of I Homecoming and Pumpkin Patch

This past weekend, we had lots of fun with family and friends enjoying the BEAUTIFUL fall weather in the Midwest!

Saturday was U of I's homecoming football game. A lot of my college girlfriends and their husbands/boyfriends/kids came to celebrate together. We tailgated on campus for most of the day. The game started early, so we had lots of good food, drinks, and catching up (oh yeah, and listening to the football game :).

All of the girls (and Tucker)

After some tailgating, us girls went and toured our old sorority house (looks the exact same, ha) and the men were brave and took the little ones to the end of the football game! The rest of the afternoon we all did our own thing, but we met up for dinner that night. It was a great day and something that we decided should be a tradition!

Today, we met the Boekers at Rader Family Farms (a big pumpkin patch). We got there before it opened, so ended up at Avanti's for lunch to kill time. After an hour, we met my mom and dad at the farm and had a fun day.

Kristie, Cal, Sylvie, and me jumping on the huge balloon, so much fun ha!

We all had a really fun weekend. It's rare that all 3 of us find the same activities really fun, but I think we were successful the past 2 days!
