Fall = a whole lot of pumpkins!

Fall is finally here and so far we are loving it! Last weekend we went to the pumpkin patch in Nicasio Valley and Catie had a wonderful time. We have been going to the same pumpkin patch for the last 3 October’s and we have loved looking at how much she has changed over the years. The pumpkin patch has great organic pumpkins, gourds, hay rides, and hay mazes. It really inspires me to become creative with my pumpkin display at home.

(You will note that Catie's face is really red in this year's picture. The reason is that it was in the 80's when we went. I just asked her (ok made her) wear the sweater for a few pictures and then she took it off. So much for going to the pumpkin patch when it's cold out).

My sister Susie and one of my best friends Lizzie joined us and we all got some amazing pumpkins. Our front doors are all set for the holiday!

This past weekend Colin was a busy one. On Friday Catie had music class, playgroup, and we went to another pumpkin patch with the mother’s club. Catie loved the bouncy house and had a great time running around. Colin went to a bachelor party on Saturday for the night so Catie and I spent the day hanging out and playing in the backyard. Good thing we spent a lot of time outside because on Sunday the cold and rain set in (love it). We spent Sunday at a couple’s baby shower and then spent the night watching the Giants games.

Crisp air, fire in the fireplace, scarves, pumpkin spice candles…..I love fall!
