We were outside as much as possible this past weekend since the weather was so beautiful! Saturday we went pumpkin picking & maybe stole picked a few apples along the way. I found the prettiest greenish/blue pumpkin & a mini white pumpkin to complete our fall decorations. They're gems. Absolute GEMS! We took Joey to the park on Sunday to run off some of his energy & so we could soak up the end of summer.

Although it was quite warm out we were eager to start our new fall/winter tradition: Soup Sundays. We kicked it off with Sweet Potato Chowder. It is super easy to make & really delicious. It may be my favorite soup. You can find the recipe below. :)
