fall festivities

Despite feeling crummy, we loaded everyone up this afternoon and headed out for some fall fun & fresh air... along with some friends who are also battling colds - so we were in good company :) The boys all loved romping through the pumpkins - we picked out a big one (and a turnip from the market!) I'm not happy with the quality of my photos though, so I think it's time I sat down and figured out the settings on my camera! It was an overcast day & drizzling a bit (4pm) but still...

I don't want to know what hubby was doing behind my back with the pitchfork but whatever it was, it got some smiles :)
