Pumpkin Pickin'

My favorite season of the year has long been autumn- I can't get enough of the fall colors, the smell of fallen leaves, hot chocolate, cozy sweatshirts, and everything else that goes with the season. And every year I look forward to pumpkin patches and apple farms and fall festivals. This year's pumpkins came from a close-by patch just west of our town in the middle of the farm fields. This was really Elin's first experience in a pumkin patch, and it was so funny to see her try and figure out what to do with all these pumpkins... "what are we doing here, anyway?" Nate, meantime, wanted to take each and every pumpkin home and put them all on our front porch. In the end, we found one pumpkin each, and Nate found two. Can't wait for carvin'!
