It’s that time of year. Thanks to Uncle Chris, the king of Christmas light stringing to get Ole Red fully covered in lights. This year we are adding 1,500 lights for a total of 7,500 lights. We got 600 of them on so far with the rest to come this week. We also have the sound system up and running with some extra tunes added to the playlist.
I promise you will see us OR hear us from a 1/2 mile away. Be sure to come up to the truck when we are going through the shopping centers for some candy canes or if we are at a light, pull up to the truck, put your window down and get ready for a barrage of candy canes to be thrown in your car!

It’s that time of year … TRICK OR TREAT! Jackson dressed up as a Red Power Ranger. It is a far cry from when I was a kid with a sheet with some holes cut in it or one of those horrible looking plastic masks.
He went over to his buddies Enzo’s neighborhood and before that we made a few trips around the block. Sorry to anyone we missed. We had a busy schedule!
By the end of the night he couldn’t even keep his eyes open!

Almost as fun as Christmas is finding our pumpkins! We are so lucky in New Milford to have a ton of places to choose from!
First, we went to Harris Hill Farm. They have a huge pumpkin patch with all kinds of pumpkins of all kinds of shapes and sizes to choose from. We also got to go on our annual hayride. The animals were out and about with some pigs, ducks, cow and even a turkey. I would say of all of them the turkey may be the first to go. ![]()
Then we went down to Centerbrook Farm which has been in the Hipp family for generations. In our opinion, they are the king of the gourds! They had all kinds to choose form and Heather love to chose several to make some displays at the house. We got some potatoes and honey and off to quench Jackson’s thirst.
Park Lane Cider Mill has been in existence since way before I used to drink of the jug of cider as a kid. They have this really old really cool cider mill and it is awesome to step inside and go back in time. They also have really tasty apples which we bought. As you can see the apple doesn’t fall far from the tree as Jackson had to drink right out of the jug to have some of that sweet delicious cider … even I did too!
