Its that time of year.  The leaves have begun their yearly show, the sweatshirts are hung for their morning run, and the pumpkins are lined up in rows, waiting for my kids to show up. 

A family in Crofton were selling them for a $1 each, we got a HUGE one.  I'll have to get a picture of the kids with the ones we brought home.  It was hard to use self control, I wanted multiples of each, but we left with 5, and 10 smaller gourdes for painting.  I love orange, so pumpkins are kind of my favorite.

He really got into it too.  The kids kept picking them up and putting them in the trunk with out even telling us.  Good thing they were cheap.

Later that day we went up to Lake Henry in Scotland and went fishing with Grandpa and Grandma McCarthy.  The boys always talk about fishing with grandpa Dean, so this was quite a treat.

The fish were pretty active.  They boys were excited they got so many bites.  This helps them like fishing even more, I don't think they've ever had to experience the true patience of a fisherman.

Before or trip fishing we stopped by the Menno Power Show.  Our yearly fix of all things old.  The kids love the tractor trains.  They are so cool, so noisy, and so old.
