Autumn

Other parts of the country are gearing up for cool crisp evenings while still relishing the lingering days of summer, we're only dreaming of fall.

We read this book tonight with its wonderful illustrations that remind me of pumpkin picking last year. This year we'll revert back to our Florida tradition of choosing a pumpkin from a local church's "pumpkin patch". It's always a family event. They do a good job decorating for fall and I could almost believe autumn was here, but the weather usually gives it away. We'll be glad to continue the tradition of pumpkin carving with Uncle Chris and Cori, which we really missed last year.

And then while perusing online, I came across this offer posted on one of my favorite blogs. Seasonal Delights, indeed! It is a lovely magazine with beautiful photographs, offered free through the end of September.
