October was a beautiful month here in the Valley. The landscape everywhere boomed with vibrant colors of crimson, golden ochres, and rusted-orange hues; tie that in with a brilliant
blue sky and Voila! A true work of art by the Creator Himself! We took advantage of the beautiful outdoors and visited a local farm/apple orchard/pumpkin patch. 
The kids had fun picking out their pumpkins, running around the orchard, playing in the playhouses, feeding the goats & geese (while I watched . . . and prayed for courage, as I pretty much hate goats and geese, for they scare the ba-jeebers out of me, especially with the creepy goat pupils, all weird in their vertical direction). What a blast we had! I just love everything about the Fall!
