Autumn

I know these sorts of pictures are out there in abundance right now... but what can I say? There is something simply wonderful about this time of year...

The bright and beautiful pumpkins


Children's happy faces as they look and point and choose their very own



The joy and excitement of a hayride...or if you're a one of my little boys, is more about the John Deere tractor than anything else...


and don't forget the taste of pumpkin!! Not that I've ever tried it this way, or have I? Mom?


No wonder innumerable blogs, Facebook pages and everything in between are sporting their brilliant Fall memories right now. There is just something about Autumn, isn't there?


As a fun side note, last year we were living in MO and I was happily pregnant with Noah during our pumpkin patch adventure. The year before that our pumpkin trip took place in CO, Nick was deployed, and Joshua was about Noah's age now. Wow!

I don't remember you ever holding a little pumpkin, but if you had, and you were Noah's age, you would have been trying to taste it too. Memories that stick in my mind are of Jennifer sucking on lemon wedges and "tasting" a fuzzy peach. As soon as her mouth hit the peach fuzz she got this "that's disgusting" look on her face. Eventually she did manage to get enough skin off, to taste the fruit. I love sweet memories ;)

Noah is in the "put everything in your mouth" phase. It's very cute. And makes everyone think that he's hungry all the time. Haha :) As though he's missing any meals, right?
