I love this time of year. It represents so many things to me: the changing of seasons and weather, leaves falling, jeans and sweaters again, soup cooking in the crock pot, shorter days, warmer food, colder weather, Halloween, Thanksgiving is coming, etc...
One of our family's tradition is to go to the local pumpkin patch, pick pumpkins to decorate our front porch, as well as to carve before Halloween. Well since there wasn't a "local" pumpkin patch that we were used to in South Jordan, we drove up to Everett to Carleton Farm. We ate hot dogs (which were actually quite yuck), rode on a hayride (which was fun), rode in a wheelbarrow, and then finally picked pumpkins. (I had previously bought pumpkins at our local grocery store a week ago and so with these, our front porch is pumpkin'd out.) We are ready for Fall!
