We have made it a tradition to go to the Pumpkin Festival (Pumpkin  Show to the locals) every year in Circleville, Ohio.  Here are the munchkins in front of this year’s winner for largest pumpkin:

I can’t even get watermelon to grow in my garden!  But I digress…  It was fun for all!

The kids picked out pumpkins to carve…

…and pumpkins to sleep with.

We visited the apple orchard in my hometown to get some cider.  The kids got all excited over these cheesy photo ops so I jumped at the chance to take pictures that will embarrass them in their teen years.

This next one is especially awesome.

I love fall!  And, I love my kids.
