Enjoying Fall

Fall in New England is full of fun activities like carving pumpkins, going on hayrides, watching football with friends, checking out the nearby Fall Show and - if you're 6 months pregnant like me - eating anything pumpkin-flavored you can get your hands on.  Here's a look at what we've been up to.

 Fall Show in Dighton on Saturday

 one of the highlights of the day - petting a calf

 the other highlight

 Jill insisted on taking pictures of every single tractor for her cousin Guy

 She kept backing up to make sure she included the entire tractor in the frame. Impressive!

This was before she called the hayride "brutal" because the straw was making her legs itchy. She rode home pantless and jumped in the tub as soon as we walked into the house!

 Someday I will tell her that I hate puzzles,

but not yet.

She literally worked on this 100-piece puzzle two nights in a row and finished it!  We were so impressed and kept joking that she was a genius!
