A Taste of Fall

Despite needing to pack for next week's big move, the girls and I decided to have kind of a "normal" day and enjoy fall with a trip to Russell Orchards. We got our "classic" pumpkin pictures, fed the animals, ate apple cider donuts and picked up some pumpkins to decorate at home. It was great just to be out for a while and continue to ignore the task at hand... I suppose I'm continuing to ignore it now!

Enjoy the pics of the day!

"Little House on the Prairie" Grace... she wanted to wear this hat:-)!



I'm not even sure what to write for this caption!

Painting their little pumpkins

Digging out the seeds and membranes (Gracie didn't like this job, until we brought out the spoons)
We baked the pumpkin seeds and had them for supper with our Friday night pizza. They were a big hit with all of us!

Daddy carving the pumpkin.
We need to get a candle for in the pumpkin and when we do, I'll be sure to post the finished product!

For the last 4 years, I've gotten pictures of my "pumpkin snatcher." To see those pictures, look here. And here is the four year old pumpkin snatcher.
