Fall Family Traditions

All week long, we are celebrating the changing seasons with a Fall Festival. You will find yummy recipes, inspiring decorations and even tips and tricks to get your home ready for winter. Oh, and don’t forget to visit the blog hostess each day for a great giveaway.

Today, Amy at Simply Sugar & Gluten-Free is hosting Family Traditions, and you have a chance to win a set of 3 Wilton Baking Racks.

As my boys get older, we tend to have less time to celebrate Fall together. But, we still have plenty of family traditions that I hope the boys will pass on to their families when they get married and have children (grandchildren, yeah!)

We enjoy apple picking…  (I went through the old pictures to come up with these :) )

The u-pick farm we visit has horse drawn wagons to take you to the patch.

As it gets a little closer to Halloween, we visit the Pumpkin Patch and carve our pumpkins.
