HAPPY BELATED FIRST DAY OF FALL

Its been kind of hectic around here with school and dance class starting. Also, I've been canning my buns off trying to preserve as much as I possibly could from this year's garden and a huge box of peaches my husband decided to buy.

I know the first day of fall was Tuesday so I'm a little late.

HAPPY BELATED FIRST DAY OF FALL!!!

Yes. I still go by Roeper because I love Texas. Hahaha. Get it?

Notice the 2 homegrown decorating pumpkins from my only surviving volunteer pumpkin plant.

All of my other pumpkin plants didn't make it.

THIS YEAR REALLY WAS A HAPPY HARVESTING YEAR

FIRST YEAR OF CANNING RESULTS

There you have it. I really went overboard with the pumpkins this year. I think I have:

28 decorating pumpkins (because they are so darn cute)

2 homegrown decorating pumpkins (from my volunteer plant)

6 pie pumpkins (for... you guessed it... pies)

13 medium pumpkins (canning)

4 large pumpkins (carving)

2 insanely large pumpkins (anger management)

55 Pumpkins = My dream of having a pumpkin patch on my front yard being fullfilled

***Or you can use this equation***

55 pumpkins: about $100.00

Time to find and buy all these pumpkins: 2 days

Expression on husband's face when he came back from his Army weekend drill: PRICELESS

HAPPY BELATED FIRST DAY OF FALL!!!
