{My girl in her favorite ruby red slippers}

If there's one thing I know for sure, it's that there's really nothing that beats some good 'ole fashion family time. And lucky for us, so much of our crew lives so close by. So yesterday my sister-in-law and I loaded up all the cousins on their day off from school and headed to our favorite little farm to pick apples and see some pumpkins. After a few hours of toting around and perusing all it had to offer- I'll be sharing some pics and tips next week- we headed closer to home and made a pit stop at our favorite local burger joint.

And because obviously we can't get enough of great food, this weekend the hubby and I will be attending our local Food and Wine Festival for the first time ever, and we're pretty excited for a much needed date night on the water. And then Sunday is all about the football. Because, fall.

Here are a few favorites from this week. What are your weekend plans?
