Autumn Pond


"Autumn Pond"
14x11 on Canvas



Fall is such a gorgeous time of year and the brilliant colors reflecting on the water is so spectacular! The crisp air brings warm fires, hot cider, good books, spicy candles and cozy blankets. 

This weekend will be our annual trip to the pumpkin patch which has been the family tradition for years. The girls plan their outfits months in advance for the plethora of photographs that will be taken. The search for the perfect pumpkin takes quite some time..but the rule is we will buy it as long as you can pick it up and carry it yourself. : ) After picking pumpkins we enter the corn maze to see who can make it to the top of the castle first! Then we break for caramel apples and munch on other homemade goodies while strolling through the craft booths. Finally, we pick up some honey sticks and several gallons of apple cider before we head home to carve pumpkins and roast seeds.  
Unfortunately, we will be missing a couple of kids this year but as tradition has it they will be back..as there is always next year!
Hope you are enjoying all of the wonderful things this season has to offer. 

HAPPY FALL!
