For the Love of Fall

Every year I try to enjoy fall to the fullest. My favorite things in the world are all wrapped up in the coziness of fall - family traditions, crisp weather with golden yellow sunsets, pumpkin candles burning, fried apple pies, and the feeling that the best of the year is yet to come, with Thanksgiving and Christmas right around the corner.

Continuing our family traditions is something we love. We hope one day our kids will say "every year our parents dragged us to the pumpkin patch" and of course, they'll sigh and talk about how annoying we were, but one day they'll be older and they'll see a sign to a pumpkin patch and they'll get that little grip on their heart and they'll remember these moments that we spent as a family. That's love and I want to create as much love for Devon and Dean that I can! I hope their childhood will be remembered as magical and with as much fondness as I remember mine. Right now I'm lucky, because they are as excited to go to the pumpkin patch as I am. In fact, Devon has pretty much asked me every day since September when we are going? So, it was time for our annual trek and this year, we headed somewhere new to Berry Patch Farms in Woodstock, GA.

This was a cute little family farm and lots of spots for some great fall photos.





















































P.S. I totally have "mom's regret" about not being in a single picture... Why oh why is the photographer always the one who looks like they weren't even there??? So, imagine me, looking like a J. Crew ad with my layered sweater and perfectly pushed up sleeves and a cute flannel shirt, with my faded skinny jeans tucked into tan suede slouchy boots with my gold watch and my hair blowing and lit by the golden rays of the sun. Yep, use your imagination cause that's not what I looked like AT ALL. :)
