gourds, corn fields and llamas–oh my! Eric and I headed to Ohio this weekend for some family time and cliché, fall fun. We went to the pumpkin patch and drank some hot apple cider–Jerome even came along! It was perfect…except that Harry decided to take his nap during right as we arrived and slept the […]
