Fall Hello Monday Weekend Recap

**Hello Monday** {10.13.2025}

Hey Hey Monday!! We had a full Fall weekend including some of our best friends!! 

Like the norm, I’m linking up with Holly and Sarah for Hello Monday and sharing a recap of our weekend.

We had planned a weekend camping trip with friends way back in the summer. So, when I figured out we were going to miss our school’s Fall Festival, I was a little bummed. 

Mom made some cakes for me to take to the cake walk. Thank you, Mama!

Right after school, we ran home, threw last minute things in the camper and headed north a little ways to Blue Ridge. 

There was a little traffic, but we made it to the campground a little after 5. We were set up and so excited for everyone else to arrive. 

We ended up just grabbing some BBQ and bringing it back to camp to eat. 

Then the kiddos were begging to do smores. It got chilly pretty quickly. 

Bryn was happy to spend the night with us in our camper. They were the cutest. They made a fort up in the top loft area. 

Joey and Milo were happy and snuggling too. Haha! 

Saturday morning, we were up fairly early and walking around. Our camp was donned Headquarters. lol

I saw this Rocky Top flag on our walk, and I thought it was cute! 

Everyone all ready for breakfast! 

Then the scooter and biker gang was ready to go! 

After a bit of riding, we headed over to the field area where there were some games to play. 

Some fishing was happening and some sweet talks were had. 

We headed back to camp for some lunch. 

We spent a lot of time eating. 

Our plan was to head to Mercier’s Apple Farm & Orchard. We started getting all the hair braided. 

Holy Moly!! I have NEVER seen this place so insane! I never imagined it would be this crazy crowded. First off, it took us a LONG time to actually get there. Traffic was a mess! 

However, everyone agreed once we got there and got inside, it was worth it! 

It was a gorgeous day!! 

We enjoyed some World Famous Apple Cider Donuts- Hot & also got some Fried Apple pies to enjoy later. 

I love these friends of mine! 

Once we got back to camp, they were back cruising. 

I thought I snapped some pictures of dinner, but I guess not. We grilled burgers & hotdogs. I also made a pot of chili. It was so perfect! 

We played a lot of games, and Caroline brought a new one! Everyone was able to join in, and it was great! 

We were up early Sunday morning. We all packed up and headed out about 9. We wanted to try to beat the traffic. We ate breakfast with Brit, Bryce and their gang at the Royal Waffle King. It was great to enjoy each other before a final goodbye. 

On the way home, we stopped by Kroger. I grabbed everything I could think we might need for the week. I didn’t want to have to go back to the store. 

Milo had an amazing time, but he was so happy to be home! Hahaha!!

We lost a true legend this weekend. Diane Keaton. I couldn’t believe it when I heard the news… Nina Banks. 

I really did love her humor. I loved all her films- FOB, FOB2, The First Wives Club, Family Stone, Something’s Gotta Give, and so many more! She truly was a one of a kind. 

And that’s a wrap on our weekend! I can’t wait to read what you guys were up to! 

I’ll see ya back on Wednesday!!
