It is fall, it is fall - the leaves are falling everywhere...

I love, love, love this time of year! So many activities to do, like apple picking, pumpkin picking, carving pumpkins, making cookies and pies, and watching football to name a few. The smell of the crisp fall air and seeing the colors of the changing leaves are just 2 more things to love!

This weekend we went pumpkin picking at Tim's Pumpkin Patch - we had an awesome time. Riley loved picking out her very own pumpkins. She picked two "baby" pumpkins.



Today, we took the opportunity with chillier more gloomier weather to stay indoors and decorate the house with a fall feeling. Riley painted her two baby pumpkins and we also carved a pumpkin. Riley helped scoop out the goop and pick out the seeds so that Jeremy could bake some pumpkin seeds.





Check out some of our fall decorations. The smell of cinnamon pine cones and an apple candle help us feel warm and cozy.



(Notice the 3 sun catchers - we made those today too as just another project. Riley had a lot of fun creating her own sun catcher!)

Stay tuned for more of our fall fun - you know there will be apple picking and pie making at the very least...YUMMY!!
