Every year I tell myself I am going to do the typical fun fall activities, and it never fails that I get busy or sick right when it is peak fall season. This year was my year to get in on the fall action, and the best part was being with friends every step. A group of girls from my grad program started getting together each week for a Bible study and to support each other through the ups and downs of our program. Since it was the midpoint in the semester, it was the perfect timing to celebrate a new season and being that much closer to being done with school. Last weekend was our long-awaited fun day. It was the first time our weather was chilly, so we decked out in sweaters and boots. The three Ohioans came to my neck of the woods in Michigan, and we ventured to Gust Brother’s Pumpkin Farm for hot apple cider, donuts, pumpkins, mums, and of course, a hayride. We are honestly kids at heart, and it does not take much for us to have a good time as long as we get to be together. It amazes me how four girls who were practically strangers a year ago have grown to be such close friends, start a Bible study, and pour encouragement into each other. Much of the day was spent reflecting on how much this friendship meant to us and the thankfulness we all felt that we have been able to prioritize our week to still meet up to refuel in God’s Word. God sure knew what He was doing when He brought us to the same grad program and brought us closer. A lifelong friendship is surely in the works. The day would not be complete if we did not create an impromptu photoshoot to bask in all of our fall fest glory. And with the beautiful day with perfect backdrops, who could resist? We could not have planned a better day, and the moments will forever remain captured in a standstill memory. As for these four SLPs-to-be, we were blessed with the best for a day filled with laughs and picture-perfect pumpkin pickin.’ Stay Curious, Kayla ©Inquisitive Perspectives 2019
