You know it's October when...

You find the kids playing in their Halloween costumes almost every day,

You rake the leaves and the next day it looks like you did nothing,
.
It's time to winterize the yard and garden,
.
There are twenty different varieties of apples at the store,
.
and they taste delicious made into applesauce, pies, or just plain (with maybe a little peanut butter),
.
You'll wait in line for half an hour in the freezing cold for cinnamon donuts and fresh apple cider,
.
.
You'll pay $3 for 5 minutes of play just to see your two year old smile like this,
.
You convince your husband and kids to pose for pictures like this,
.
And you'll brave the mess and danger of carving pumpkins with guts and seeds and knives everywhere...

.
To see your kids' excitement when you light the candles and turn off the light!

Happy Halloween!
