Carter Mountain Orchard Visit

We headed up north on Sunday to Carter Mountain Orchard for some Fall fun. The orchard is set high up on a mountain, and the view is so pretty. The place was packed and it was HOT (and didn't feel very much like Fall), but we ate apple cider donuts, sipped cold apple cider, played in the pumpkins and walked in the orchards until the heat started making me grumpy (90 degrees in October will do that to ya). I would love to go back (or check out some other local orchards) when the weather is a bit cooler.

November, November!

Happy November! I think it's pretty safe to assume I've been waiting for this month for a loooooong time, and there were moments when I thought it'd never get here - but it's here, it's here! (Due date is November 21, remember??)

I thought these festive photos from our recent trip to the pumpkin patch were perfect for welcoming in November. We found our way through the corn maze, played a giant game of Checkers with our feet, picked out pumpkins and tried not to freeze our ears off (the wind was chilly!), and it was all so very festive. Hoping the rest of this month brings even more fall fun! (I hear the red cups are out at Starbucks - yipppeeee.)
