the pumpkin patch

Fall is such a great season for a lot of reasons. My recent posts have probably highlighted that enough :) Today we got to do one of the BEST things about Fall - visit a pumpkin patch! Five of the eight of us went, accompanied by Nick's mom. We found out that we should have gone earlier in the season because the pumpkins left were more green than orange. It took awhile but we each chose perfect ones... Maddie went for the tiny one, Molly, Nick and I went for the only ones we could that weren't rotted or green, and Skyler went for the biggest one he could find (45 lb). We enjoyed pumpkin donuts before coming down from the mountain. I LOVE going up there!























What else is going on?
School - good grades overall. Two exams this coming week - Bible Intro and Psychology.
Social - going to dinner tonight, going to a Bible study tomorrow.
Colder air is getting increasingly more bearable. Wonderful, since the low is 29 tonight. I look forward to snow, but I'm also a bit scared.
We've decided to keep the heat off until Thanksgiving, or until it starts snowing. We're also doing a "no lights" day today... our utilities bill last month was higher than we desired.
