With all of our traveling over the last few months, I really hadn't spent anytime making our home feel like fall... And let me tell you, both Luke and I LOVE the spirit of fall in the house. So the best way to bring fall to the house??? Pumpkin Festival!
Oh yes, I was just itching to get some pumpkins on our front door step and plan a carving party :-) I was so excited we were going to be in town for the last big festival at Country Apple Orchard.
If you remember correctly, Luke and I took Jameson to the Apple Festival last year... Let's just say it was a whole new experience this year!

2012 Pumpkin Festival
From the moment we arrived, all Jameson wanted to do was RUN RUN RUN! I think I was thinking we would enjoy the animals, go on the little tractor ride, jump in the small bounce house... You know, enjoy what the orchard had to offer before we picked pumpkins. NOPE, not so much! Jameson had a different idea! But he had the time of his life and it was so heartwarming to watch :-)
I promise you, J did not stop running the entire time!
We then found the GIANT hay stack for kids to climb on and let's just say... We were all over that! Mr. Man was having a "hay-day" (sorry, I just had to say it!) Throwing hay, laying in hay, eating hay... you name it and he was doing it. GREAT TIMES! GREAT ENTERTAINMENT!
Luke had to head to work in the afternoon, so we had to end our play time and head over the the patch and pick out our perfect pumpkins! Again, such a different experience from last year! It was so much fun to watch Jameson run around all the pumpkins, explore, touch and eventually pick out the perfect little pumpkin all for himself!
Hmmm which one should I pick?
THIS ONE!
Not only do I love fall, but I love making these unforgettable memories with my amazing family! I can't even put into words how much I loved watching Jameson explore the pumpkin patch all for himself!
HAPPY FALL!
