almost time...

It is almost time for my excited little ghosts and goblins to dress-up in their homemade costumes and parade around the streets long after their normal bedtimes.  They found the calendar this morning and anxiously counted the days.  

We've done all our usual autumn activities at home and around town to learn about this beautiful time of year.  Homemade applesauce has filled the crockpot on the few cool days we've encountered and one of our pumpkins was prematurely carved on a warm sunny afternoon.

They all tried the pumpkin seeds that Mommy burned in the oven because they know how much I love pumpkin seeds.
Sugar cookies have been cut into bats and pumpkin by little helpers in the kitchen.

Flowers were harvested from a local pumpkin patch.

Autumn adventures have been fun but they are all awaiting the big night to come!

Happy Halloween Week!
