Pumpkin Fun
My love affair with the New York seasons continues. (Yeah, yeah, I know the winter is going to be awful. Don't rain on my fall parade.)
This weekend, we took the girls to pick their own Halloween pumpkins.
(Next year, I am SO growing my own!)
Then the girls brought them home and drew scary faces on them and, in the case of Ana, cuddled with them.
(Okay, so that is not a picture of Ana cuddling with her pumpkin. But it IS a picture of how amazingly long and tall she's gotten. Dudes, I just brought her home from the hospital. She weighed six-and-a-half pounds YESTERDAY!)
Thank goodness she's still a cuddler.
Good times.

My mother says the same thing about me. Although, I think she does mention that she should have froze me at age 5 pretty often.
I'm sure the girls had a great time at the pumpkin patch! My sister grew a bunch of pumpkins this year and my girls (OK, mostly Marissa because Paige thinks she's getting too old for Halloween) were so excited to get their pumpkinds from Auntie's garden!
One word or warning if you grow your own....make sure you have plenty of people to give them to! A single pumpkin plant is capable of spawning more offspring than you will ever be able to use on your own!
And the girls? So cute with their pumpkin-happy grins!
I'm with SC - Snow is essential to any good childhood (also - snow DAYS! Crucial).
It's the seemingly never-ending cold, rainy, dreary days that are tough. But Spring is SO worth it! And Fall, well, the trees really haven't started to change yet. Just wait! (Make sure you go apple-picking, too.)
