Fall: Festivals, Food, Friends and Fun!!

We have had some good times enjoying the fall. Last weekend, Dustin, my mom and I visited Boyd's orchard where we picked out a few apples. Dustin was able to enjoy his new wagon (purchased by Daddy) while we strolled through the market at the orchard. I was even able to purchase some good apples which were used in some yummy recipes that I will post later in the week! Dustin was a little overwhelmed by all of the people at the orchard and was mostly quite as a result. Here are a few photos of our trip:

The pumpkin butt makes its annual debut:

I searched for a good costume for Dustin to wear this Halloween and found the cutest little golfer's costume. But, Tim suggested finding a costume at a consignment shop. Well, I did not find anything cute at the consignment store! By the time I went to order the golfer uniform on-line, they were all sold out! :( And so, on Thursday afternoon I did find a black hooded long sleeve shirt with glow-in-the-dark skeleton bones. Since it was a bit cold last night, we had to wear a jacket over the shirt, so it cannot be seen in these photos. Next year, we'll do better!
Dustin rode around with his little pumpkin and a bowl full of candy to give to the trick-or-treaters. Next year, he will be amongst those knocking on the doors!



















Dustin just loved the pumpkins!



















And for the end...pumpkin butt!
