It's here! Oh how I love fall and every, single thing about this magnificent season! Especially the temperature dropping a little, sipping pumpkin spice lattes and waiting for my absolutely favorite type of pumpkin to make her arrival at the local market. Some call her the "Fairytale" pumpkin, others refer to her as the "Cinderella" pumpkin- either way, she is a beauty! I love taking the children pumpkin picking each October, making our way to the apple festivals and fairs, hayrides at the local nursery, drinking cinnamon cider, filling the house with the scents of the season~ caramel candles, mulling spices on the stove, crackling fires, making candy apples and baking homemade pies and other wonderful goodies! What a glorious time of year!

Oh what a great description! That pumpkin and pumpkin picking sound like so much fun! Do you have a good pumpkin pie recipe??
I love these pumpkins too! Our market only gets a few so I am excitedly waiting for my "fairytale" to arrive! I have been lurking and wanted to comment on how beautiful your blog is. Truly inspiring!
There is something about Autumn that is magical...one musn't waste it-the season is much too short!
love your pumpkin! and your photo, if i may, just became my background and replaced my susan branch one!
It really is the best season of the year, I love the "fairytale" pumpkin too, I had never seen one in real life until moving to the midwest...
I completely agree with you. Happy Fall!!
Hi Pearls and Grace! I just found you from your comment on Lori's blog and wanted to let you know how I have enjoyed reading about your wonderful traditions and family!
I have a private blog but I'd be happy to send you an invite if you'd like.
Love the Cinderella pumpkins, love everything about Fall, beauty and grace in this lovely season...! Enjoy every moment with your new little man.
Mmmm...cinnamon cider...yummy! We are going pumpkin picking this weekend and I just can't wait! :)

Oh, Sebi. Loving your post. Couldn't help but notice how you changed some of your "signature colors" on your blog to coordinate with the season. You, visual vixen! Miss you bunches. Do you think a "Fresh Market" could hold your family, Kerry's, and mine??? We would pack it out! Needing some lattes & some pumpkin choc. chip muffins right about now. Happy Fall weekend.
Hugs!
Reading your lovely blog is an escape from the reality of the everyday world. Thanks for your beautiful words and gift for making them flow like a song!
Well, we need to work really hard to get our Vols through tomorrow against those annoying Dawgs :) I went to UT and we have had season tickets for over 30 years. When did Hubby play there? Have a great weekend and dress the fam in orange!
My kids get me the necklace last year for Christmas. The salesman at Saks told my PD that the ruby is there because if a ruby touches you it is good luck. Isn't that just the sweetest? My PD is going to be completely surprised because when she told me she would like to have one, she said, "I will treat myself someday with one", and I said, "Why, yes, that would be a good treat!" :)
Enjoy autumn - and congratulations on your new arrival - he is adorable.
i love the fairytale pumpkins. this year, i guess because of the drought,i have seen none of those...sniff sniff....but i do sit here tonight with all the windows open & a wonderful breeze blowing , eating candy corn of course!
:)
Had no idea what this pumpkin was called but I love it too! So glad to know!!!
We love fall too. We are headed to the pumpkin patch tomorrow!
Happy Sunday!
