Mile: 110,493 It’s that time of year … pumpkin carving. Jackson made his own spooky face. Don’t forget to make a biggggggg leaf pile and jump in it. I guarantee you won’t be disappointed. Took me back to when I was Jackson;s age when he…
Mile: 110,398 Fall was in the area, leaves were at their peak, and it was time to head off on a whim to one of our favorite places, Popey’s Ice Cream Shop. We picked up Jackson and his buddy Alejandra from school. It was great…

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!

Mile: 110,430 Off as a family to enjoy another food truck! Kelly’s Creamery and Food Truck has the yummiest of yummy food. Jackson says they have the MOST mouthwatering chicken tenders and as someone who took a bite I agree! Played a little chess and…
Mile: 110,280 Well, this was a first for Jackson… some apple picking. We went to Averill Farm in Washington, Connecticut. It is the same apple orchard my parents took me to when I was a kid. They had all kinds of different apples as you…

The Connecticut Antique Machinery Association puts on one of the best shows of the year that we go to.
They have preserved all kinds of old antique machinery including dozers, tractors, implements, diggers, sawmill and even a rock crusher.
They have an old steam engine that you can ride too!
Action Jackson loves the swap meet and found himself some old matchbox cars to get. They also have a rock museum and what 7 year old doesn’t like some new rocks?!?!?!
We also got to see a lumberjack exhibition which he enjoyed.
We topped it off with a fantastic roast beef sandwich and pretzel. Needless to say he crashed on the way home…. But not after securing our flags we fly off the back of Ole Red.
Hope your adventures were as fun as ours!

Mile: 109,622 One thing Jackson is sure of … every day is a good day for ice cream! Off to see one of our favorites, Hassina, and her family working hard at Carvel! Good to the last spoon!
Mile: 109,720 Kicking off the fair season we stopped by good old Bridgewater Fair! It’s fun to watch the years go by in Jackson’s eyes. When he was younger the sights of it were his thing and we gave him sensory overload. Now as he…
Mile: Might Not Have Been in Ole Red 
We took a little last minute adventure out of state to Cape Cod! We got to get our pirate on in a very cool mini golf course! AAAAAARRGGGGHHHHH!!!!
We also got to check out some lighthouses, beaches, and all kinds of cool stuff. All in all it was good to get away!
Our room even had a record player so Jackson was able to bust out some booty dances to Marley and a few others. Marley was by far his favorite!
