Burn piles, Pumkins, Hay Rides, and Hiking; It must be Fall

We had a great October weekend. I started it off by burning my yard debris that I have been accumulating for the past 11 months. Wow, we have been in our new house for 11 months now and we are still hanging pictures. Oh well, that is life with two little people! On Saturday we went to the local farm for a hayride, pumkins, and climbing on a hay pyramid. Then today we went on a great hike with the whole family. Everyone did great and Calla actually hiked about 2 miles of the 4 mile hike. What a great little hiker we have!!


My burn pile that took 11 months to build and only about 45 minutes to burn down.


The sisters hanging out on some hay.

Calla jumping off a hay bale. Calla now loves to jump off anything and everything.


Climbing with dad!


Searching for the perfect Calla pumkin with mom and Hannah.

I found it!

Looking cool in the pumkin patch! And making sure no one takes our pumkin!


Post hike snack in the car, Calla had a great time hiking!
Hannah looking cute on the trail during lunch.


Family photo on the bridge, even got Aspen in the photo.


Calla enjoying her PBandJ while sitting on the bridge.

It is getting close to Halloween, so we had to throw in Calla and Aspen looking their scariest!


Our friend the Rough-skinned Newt we met on the hike!

Hello, I found your burn pile picture and was wondering if you would mind if I used it in a brochure I am making on backyard burning. I've been searching for pictures without people in them and yours came up! ssmith@ncuaqmd.org
