We are loving fall!!


Yesterday Grace and I went to a small pumpkin farm here in town. It was so cute! It's a family farm and they have a little pumpkin patch attached to it. There were a few small animals to look at and a little maze made out of hay with big white tubes attached to use as slides. Grace really liked playing on the hay.

This is the pumpkin she picked out. We are going to carve it tomorrow night. Doesn't she look cute in her candy corn pants and pumpkin shirt? She got the outfit from Aunt Christine for her birthday. She insisted that she wear them to the pumpkin patch!!

Of course we had to stop and pet the kitty. Grace was in heaven. The cat was very friendly so she sat on the wagon for quite a while with the cat. Without fail it brought up the conversation about when we own our own home again she can have a kitty. She is counting down the days!! Too bad it won't be until 2010, but she doesn't understand that part.

We made mummy dogs the other day for lunch. I used Pillsbury bread sticks and cut them into strips. Then we wrapped them around the hot dogs. After they were done we used mustard to make their faces. Grace really liked making and eating them!

This is our lame alternative for making smore's. Grace didn't know what they were and Scottie thought they sounded good. So I got all the stuff to make them. But since we don't have access to a bonfire, we used our gas stove. They actually tasted pretty good. I didn't know Scottie was taking a picture. What a lovely site!! But overall we have really enjoyed fall this year. I can't wait until next year when I can enjoy it without having to stop every five minutes to catch my breath!
