Happy Fall!

In honor of the turning of the season, the Asch family went to a pumpkin patch last weekend. (We notice that cute pictures of kids with pumpkins seems to be a must when doing blog postings). We had a great time picking out pumpkins and visiting the animals, including goats, sheep, pigs, rabbits and chickens! After some pumpkin picking we warmed up with some hot cider and pumpkin butter.
Miri also helped to bake some pumpkin cookies (thanks for the recipe Grandma Jean!) Miri's favorite parts were helping with beaters and licking the batter. Yum!

What a coincidence - I'm making pumpkin cookies today to take to Chase on Wednesday.
With her hood up, Miriam is the spitting image of Grandma Margery.

Cute kids with pumpkins is always a hit...and Miri certainly is cute! Love the frequent postings of late -- keep 'em coming. We miss y'all lots, but are happy to see you thriving out east.
