A Little Bit of Fall

I heard through the grapevine there were pumpkins at the Wholesale Market! 

We found the market, and we found the pumpkins!

While they aren't quite the same as what we are familiar with, we will take any form of pumpkin we can get to make it feel a little bit like fall in our home.

This was our find!

Big ones, small ones, fat ones, tall ones, green ones, brown, and somewhat orange ones.  Have you ever seen a pumpkin like that?   :)

In case you were wondering; it's still hot.  Some might say very hot, but on a very hot scale in the Middle East, I say if it's just 100, things are changing for the better.  It's finally starting to cool off, and let me tell you, there is a tolerable difference between 135 and 100.  At night the temperatures are finally starting to drop below the 90's and I see 79 at night in the next 10 day forecast.  Highs for the day around 97, with a couple 93's stuck in here and there.  That will feel nice! Humidity is also finally settling down. Oh, Happy Day!

I am beginning to try to figure out how to make a Thanksgiving dinner next month, and hear there is a difficulty finding Turkeys around these parts.  People are making their holiday and Christmas plans already, and for those that are planning to stay, they've already given invites for Christmas parties. I suppose it's time to get on that and make some plans of my own.  Hard to believe the end of the year isn't too far off. 

The days go quickly, and the kids keep growing and changing faster than I can blink. 

Thanking God for every day, and for pumpkins. :)
