For the love of Pumpkin Picking

Out of all the seasons, autumn is my favorite. Today we took the kids for a day out pumpkin picking in the gorgeous (too nice for October) Jersey weather. As we drove up to Nana's house my 3 year old daughter remarked about how pretty the bright red leaves were on the trees and how it was now Fall. It is nice to live in a place where there is actually four seasons.

Alex and Daddy went into the "non-spooky" corn maze together and managed to get lost, thanks to Alex's highly accomplished wandering skills. Though the maze was not real big, I'm sure they probably circled around in there a few times before making their way out. The kids got along pretty gloriously today with only a small spat over who could have the littler pumpkin. I remember as a kid fighting over the big pumpkin, and here my kids argue over the tiny one. Go figure!

The kids look adorable in this photo. I love how they are dressed in orange for the season. And if you hadn't mentioned it I never would have known they were arguing.
