Fabulous Fall

Every Thursday I try to do something extra special with Eli, just he and I! Typically I take him to the Orchard this time of year, but with fall break I knew it would be too busy.

I decided to improvise and take him to a local farm, but sadly you can no longer pick your own apples in the state of Kentucky due to health laws...bummer! So, I was stuck buying a whole bag from a sweet little old lady!

Still needing an activity for our little date, I took Eli on down the road to get a pumpkin from a different farm...

I thought it would be a fun fall activity to paint the pumpkin and bake and apple pie. Turns out that Eli is quite the artist...or something like that!

Below is the finished product.

When Eric made it home, he helped me with pie. It was super easy, and I actually enjoyed cooking with the help and company of my dear hubby!

Have I mentioned how much I LOVE fall?
