I really love when the weather turns to a crisp autumn and the leaves start to show their fall colors. This is my favorite time of year!! Therefore we have been spending a lot of time outside. We went to the pumpkin orchard to pick our own pumpkins, to the pumpkin patch (but we just rode on the slide there and went into the petting zoo, the pumkins are way too expensive). Dallyn took us "camping" up in Pine Valley, but we ended up staying in a cabin instead of roughing it in a tent with Gracie, a decision I am grateful for! We went to a farm here in Vegas where you can buy pumpkins and ride on ponies, they even had a turkey there that was cool to see. Our new family tradition is to pick pine nuts up at Mt. Charleston every fall, so we went up there and we are probably going again because we have eaten all of them already! I also talked Dallyn into taking us to the Bellagio to see the garden and they had pumpkins there that were close to 1,000 lbs! That place always amazes me! We also took Gracie to see the water show outside, but she was scared because she thought she was going to get splashed! It is a fear she has since we took her to Sea World and she got soaked. It's pretty funny!
