Fall decorations!

Fall is in full swing up here! We've made 2 apple crisps and 2 loaves of banana bread, and we finally got some decorations up outside to welcome fall!
 

Check out that HUGE pumpkin! No, we didn't grow it in our garden, but see all those small ones on the other hay bale? Yeah, those are ours!
 
That big pumpkin is an example of some of the benefits of living in a small town! So, I asked a friend of mine if her parents had any hay to sale that I could use for decoration. Her dad came over that evening and dropped off these bales of hay for $2!! And on top of it, he gave us this huge pumpkin! Yes, gave it to us! The girls were so excited and they still make big, googly eyes at it every time we walk out the door or come home! They think it's the biggest pumpkin EVER!
 
 
Here it is up close! Oh, and those are my mums that haven't bloomed yet. :(
 
These little scarecrows were sent to us by Grammy and Poppy and the girls love playing with them!
 
 
And those decorative corn stalks are straight from our garden! It is definately feeling like fall, okay almost like winter already, but we'll enjoy our decorations before the first snow flies this winter, ugh!
