Last week, I had the pleasure of reading the delightful The Twelve Ways of Fall at Reinventing the We’ll.
So I was inspired to share the sightings of our town as we celebrated Pumpkin Fest. For the last few years we have been putting up scarecrows as a part of the festivities. The contest is judged on Friday and when the scarecrows come down on Sunday the fest is over for another year.
I got out and took a few pics of winning scarecrows, fun scarecrows and a few decorated pumpkins. And here they are:
Last but not least is the Scarecrow Family. So, how do you celebrate the Autumn Season?
This is really awesome! I wish our town or neighborhood did something like this. I love the scarecrows hanging out at the campfire the best! We celebrate Autumn with a lot of hiking, fires in the fireplace, and baking fall flavors. We also decorate our front porch and carve pumpkins.
It was fun. And now we have a birthday to get ready for as Sam turns 6. The kids are already talking about their halloween costumes.
Thank you for your sweet comment on my blog today! And I totally understand that your art & relaxation comes when you’re making creations in the kitchen 🙂 awesome!
Every Fall I go into seasonal depression. The thought of the arid ground makes me sigh but I do so love the autumn colors!! Thank you for reminding me of the Joys of Fall. Your Pumpkin eye is awesome!!!
This post has become very popular lately. I am looking forward to making a new scarecrow for this year’s festival.
I liked this post and the idea of your neighbors competing with scarecrows. Cool
It was a lot of fun and really dresses up the town during our annual festival.
Those are all great!! I needed some Halloween motivation..
Ah, autumn. October-November, my favorite time of the year. Love Halloween.
