More pumpkins

Last weekend our friends, Katie and Josh along with their 2 kids Hampton and Camden came for a visit. We took the kids to a local pumpkin patch and they had fun getting their faces painted and checking out the pumpkins. Saturday night we watched Auburn play LSU - our annual game to watch together! We all had a great time and enjoyed their visit! Thanks Crago's for spending the weekend with us!

Pumpkins and apples oh my!

A couple of weeks ago we made our traditional trip out to Burt's Pumpkin Farm and the apple orchard. It was a beautiful day and the crowds were low, it was still September so the pumpkins were not in high demand yet. The kids always enjoy playing around the HUGE pumpkins. After we left the pumpkin farm we headed about 10 miles down to the apple orchard. We enjoy picking fresh apples. There is nothing better than an apple picked right off the tree. I have made lots of apple bread and an apple caramel cake! Yum!

Near impossible to get a cooperating picture!

I wonder what they were discussing!

Campbell liked the white ones.

And the orange ones too.

This is "time out" in the orchard!

Our Kitchen

I am participating in Show Us Your Life Friday over at Kelly's Korner. Yes, it is Sunday - better late than never! On Friday she did kitchens - the heart of every home! We spend so much time in our kitchen! It is nice that it is open to our family room and the kids playroom. As soon as we walked in this house and saw the kitchen, we fell in love! I LOVE our HUGE island and the kids eat breakfast and lunch there.
