Fall at the Farm

This weekend we spent time at the farm taking in some of the best that fall has to offer...Pumpkins, Hay Bales and Apples :) I love FALL!

This year Mom had some big-ol pumpkins in her garden...who cares that some may be a little deformed :)




 


 

For some reason, strange crops of pumpkins and gourds grow around the farm...We headed out to search for more.



...and got distracted by the hay bales. So much fun :) Even Callie joined in!




 






The farm also has a bumper crop of apples this year. Lots-o-Applesauce, please!




Have I mentioned that Fall is my favorite?

Season's Changing...

Since Friday marked the first official day of Fall, I thought a look back at some summer fun was necessary (plus I had pictures on my camera that had not yet made the blog) Enjoy!
