Pumpkin Patch and Rittman Orchard

On Wednesday Theresa, Wyatt and I took a trip to Rittman Orchard. Theresa wanted to get some apples to make apple sauce with and then of course we had to pick out some pumpkins for Halloween. 

It was a cold, cloudy, and windy day... even more so since we were at the top of a hill. But the view was amazing and the colors of the trees in Ohio are gorgeous, something we do not get much of in Florida.

As we entered the shop the smell of apples immediately hit my nose. There were many apples to choose from. Plus all kinds of other goodies.

I snapped a picture of these weird looking turnips just for that fact: they were weird looking and I had never seen anything like them. At the register there was one that someone had put googly eyes on... what a clever idea. 

So many apples!

This picture is for my mom since her name is Peg.

This is such a pretty pumpkin.

Pumpkins everywhere

This pumpkin has warts. 

The pumpkins we picked out!

We were all starting to get hungry so we stopped off at a little restaurant in Barberton to have lunch.

These gorgeous trees were right out front. I mean just look at that vibrant red tree! Beautiful.

Theresa and I opted to have this delicious chicken dumpling soup that hit all the right spots on this cold gloomy day. The dumplings were huge and very filling.

After lunch we headed back to Akron to enjoy the rest of our day together.

*My Thoughts*

I miss all of the beautiful colors that Ohio has to offer in the fall.

It's one of the many downfalls of living in a state where it is always summer.

I miss the good home cooking.

I miss the views.

Ohio will always hold a piece of my heart.
