Leaves & Pumpkins

It's been busy around our house lately, but we finally found some time to enjoy the season. The kids went to Stonycreek Farm last week. We took a hayride out to the pumpkin patch (of course I forgot my camera...) and had some pumpkin pie and carmel apples. So, it finally feels like Fall around here. The yard is now blanketed with leaves and Gavin took it upon himself this week to rake the front and back yards into the most "gigantical" leaf piles ever!!! Here are a few of my favorite Fall pictures for 2009. Enjoy!

Gavin devised a new method for pumpkin gutting

Natalie loved the pumpkins, but insisted on using utensils. She screamed when the gooey pumpkin guts got on her hands. She ran around the room trying in vain to shake it off.
