Fall fun!

Rob has this Saturday off -- I think it is the first weekend day we will all be together and how does he want to spend it? At his brother's house watching baseball!!!
I told him that isn't going to happen - we should be spending time together doing something fun! I know Ryan is still to little to remember these things, but we will! My mom still talks about how I picked my first pumpkin (at just a few months older than Ryan) and has pictures to show from it!
Finally he relented and we are taking Ryan to Springdale Farm ! They are having a harvest fest so in addition to all the farms animals we can pick pumpkins, have cider, and play in the hay (oooh I better remember my Claritin!). I am so excited! I hope Ryan LOVES it - how could he not given his fascination with animals and Bas (as he calls anything round, including pumpkins!).
Tomorrow afternoon I am putting up all the Halloween decorations! You have to understand, LOVE fall! LOVE Halloween! So much so, that my kitchen is decorated in a pumpkin theme year round. Labor Day I put out all the fall decorations and changed the flag, last weekend I added the scarecrow to our porch and tomorrow all the Halloween stuff comes out of its 2 rubbermaid containers! I can't wait! I'll have to take some pictures of my favorites for you!

I'm so jealous! We don't actually have much of a fall in Texas (although today we did get to FINALLY all wear jeans for the first time)! With our recent move, I doubt I'll get around to putting any decorations out until Christmas (well, MAYBE I'll be able to scrounge out my scarecrow for the yard and skeleton for the front door...Megan loves him and named him "Mr. Lazybones")! Pick a pumpkin for us! :-)

I LOVE fall! Jeans and a sweatshirt, what's more comfortable than that? It's really quite sad, but I don't have a lot of fall decorations. My big decorating holiday is Christmas. :)

Ohhhh I love fall too. And a pumpkin patch sounds sooo fun. Mmm hot cider, fun, fun, fun. Ryan will love it!
