The weather is cooling off, the trees are turning red and orange, and leaves are covering the grass....you know what that means! Fall is in the air, and it's our favorite time of the year. Especially here in NY where the pumpkins, apple cider, and fall festivals are everywhere.
We always start out our autumn decorations at home with a trip to the Amish market for our pumpkins and fall veggies. They have so many varieties of pumpkins, as well as farm fresh brussel sprouts, cabbage, broccoli, cauliflower, butternut squash, acorn squash, spaghetti squash....
The pumpkins are right at home on our front porch, and the boys will carve their Halloween pumpkins next week!
The boys were out of school on Columbus Day, and the weather was very warm so we packed up a picnic and headed to a town park for a fun afternoon in the open air.
The boys love grabbing some baked oatmeal and fruit muffins to start their day before school.
The garden is winding down, but my zinnias are doing great! I grew these (and the petunias) from seed this year, and the zinnia are almost 5 ft tall!
My coworkers always love when I bake goodies and bring some for them! This was a new recipe--apple cider donut cake! YUM
Bradley ran his last XC race today! I'm so proud of him for trying out a sport for the first time, and giving it his all. He went from barely being able to run and being diagnosed with asthma, to being one of the top runners in his division!
