September 5, 2013
Family on the beach
We've said goodbye to summer, hello to back to school and are ready for our favorite time of year at Springfield Moms. Our Fall Family Fun Guide is chock full of festivals, pumpkin patches, and corn mazes. Thanks to Lisa Whelpley and Kari Thevenot for updating this fantastic directory.  Browse through and try some new adventures this year, and as always share your comments as you visit them!
 
We have loved the reader photos coming in; this family sunset picture is a favorite of mine.  Check out the blog, Making Memories in the Moment, and share your favorite ways to slow down and savor the moment.  We will draw a winner for Jr Blues tickets for one of their regular season October games.
 
We look forward to hearing from you soon.

Best,
Kim Leistner, Founder
