Pumpkins!!












A very generous family in our broadly termed "neighborhood" set up a free "choose and pick pumpkin patch" this year, so we went over to check it out! They ask only that those who pick a pumpkin make a contribution to the Perpetual Education Fund for our church. Easy enough! So each of the kids got to pick out their own pumpkin and they were very excited. Much more fun than digging through a bin at the grocery store. :)
I've been having a sort of stressful week this week, and my brain is muddled and befuddled, but hopefully I'll have more to say next week.
And a reminder to my bookclub friends - tomorrow, my house, 7:00! Hope to see you here.

Fun, fun, FUN!!! I guess Fall is officially here!! They were talking on the radio the other day how they wish Halloween could be changed to the last Saturday in October instead of the 31st of October. That way we would never have to worry about having trick or treating on a school night or on a Sunday. Makes sense to me.

Sorry you're having a stressful week. Hang in there!

Looks like fun & fall in those pics. Temps are still pushing 90 here in central TX. We don't even own coats - it doesn't get very cold for more than a few days at a time, and a sweater is usually more than sufficient. LOVE it here!

sorta weird to be walking around on all those black mesh matts tho, eh? yes, i understand the purpose of keeping weeds down and whatnot, but sure does take away part of the experience of walking in a pumpkin patch!

Great pumpkin pics! I miss having little ones around this time of year. I have many fond memories of visiting cider mills when we lived in Michigan.
