When I think of fall, I always think of pumpkins and leaves changing color. I can’t pick just one picture!!!! I vote for F, I, and R! There are so many great photos.
November 1st, 2007 at 8:47 am
Can’t decide yet which to pick, but wanted to let you know there are two pictures labeled S.

I really like photo M. Very pretty!
November 1st, 2007 at 9:02 am
They are all great, but I vote for L … R is pretty great too though.
November 1st, 2007 at 9:16 am
I loved photo B.
November 1st, 2007 at 9:21 am
Wow….everyone really captured fall! I gotta go with L because it captured 2 of my favorite parts of fall…colorful leaves and kids!!!
November 1st, 2007 at 9:40 am
Photo L!!! Great outfit for the season, beautiful girl! Obviouslly taking in the moment of the season! Awesome photo!
November 1st, 2007 at 9:42 am
Photo S - sent by Sue Mestery
Too cute and the little girl is precious!
November 1st, 2007 at 9:44 am
Am I voting for the photo just because of the kid? Photo H it is.
November 1st, 2007 at 9:57 am
What Fall means to me is all the beautiful colors; especially since I live in the mountains of East Tennessee. I love 5 different pictures: H, I, L, U and W! If I had to go with just one and the ONE that sums up “my” Fall, then it would have to be U!
I also wanted to let you know there is two for “S”.
Thanks for doing the contest, I didn’t get around to sending in a picture, but I have been anxiously waiting to see all those that did!
November 1st, 2007 at 9:59 am
Photo L is my favorite!
November 1st, 2007 at 10:02 am
I vote for photo H!
November 1st, 2007 at 10:16 am
Photo L. Really great shot!
November 1st, 2007 at 10:48 am
My vote is the 1st S (by Gail) because it made me laugh out loud and reminded me of some fun leaf-raking parties from years ago!
November 1st, 2007 at 10:52 am
I vote for L, love the fall colors!
November 1st, 2007 at 11:06 am
I vote M
November 1st, 2007 at 11:13 am
I like A.
November 1st, 2007 at 11:16 am
Oh my goodness, this was hard!!! I love fall and all the pics with the kiddos are so adorable. But I have to say that my very favorite is L. The colors are just beautiful. Thanks for sharing everyone
November 1st, 2007 at 11:31 am
I would like to choose photo “L”.
November 1st, 2007 at 1:15 pm
I love them all but my vote is for R! What a cutie!
November 1st, 2007 at 1:41 pm
I liked L and W, but I’m gonna have to go with the big L! = )
November 1st, 2007 at 1:50 pm
Wow. It’s between C & L….
I guess my vote is for L.
Love it!
November 1st, 2007 at 1:56 pm
Wow, that’s a lot of photos! My favorites are H,I,K,L,R, and U.
November 1st, 2007 at 2:29 pm
There are so many great pictures! I think I like G; walking, playing, and exploring as children outside in the fall is the greatest!
November 1st, 2007 at 2:33 pm
Cute photo with great colours in L!!
November 1st, 2007 at 2:48 pm
Too many great photos!!!! I’m going to vote for W.
November 1st, 2007 at 3:09 pm
I have to go with W but man that is sooooo tough!!
November 1st, 2007 at 3:39 pm
I vote for photo S!
November 1st, 2007 at 4:07 pm
I voted earlier for photo S, but it should be Photo R. I was looking at them with the labels underneath instead of on top of the picture.
November 1st, 2007 at 4:17 pm
Photo Q gets my vote.
November 1st, 2007 at 4:37 pm
Photo A
November 1st, 2007 at 4:44 pm
I love photo Q… walking through the leaves is one of the best quiet moments of fall.
November 1st, 2007 at 4:47 pm
So many beautiful photos! I pick H.
November 1st, 2007 at 4:53 pm
Photo L is my pick. Great fall colors.Beautiful subject.
November 1st, 2007 at 6:22 pm
Goodness, it’s a tough decision. I’m between H and L. I think I like L so much because that outfit is downright adorable. But the light in the little boy’s eyes in H is great. I think I have to go with H.
November 1st, 2007 at 6:57 pm
I’m voting for Photo G.
There’s something really familiar about it. And it’s cute.
I really LOVE lots of the other ones, too! Fantastic!
November 1st, 2007 at 7:24 pm
I vote A too :)!
November 1st, 2007 at 9:22 pm
I vote for F!! I have twins so fall means multiples to me. I love that the parents took their 4 babies to the pumpkin patch and all the babies are content.
November 1st, 2007 at 11:26 pm
Photo F =)
November 1st, 2007 at 11:57 pm
Photo G!
November 2nd, 2007 at 12:24 am
Photo G is my favorite. I really like the angle of the shot. But photo R answers the theme best for me. It is still warm in Texas, and we don’t have many leaves falling, so our favorite fall activity is going to the pumpkin patch. All the pictures are really good though!
November 2nd, 2007 at 10:17 am
Great colors and a beautiful little girl
November 2nd, 2007 at 10:18 am
Photo L beautiful colors and wonderful hair on that little girl
November 2nd, 2007 at 10:39 am
I pick Q. Father and Son how sweet!
November 2nd, 2007 at 11:06 am
photo L!
November 2nd, 2007 at 12:39 pm
Photo F
November 2nd, 2007 at 1:09 pm
I like S, the one with the kids playing the the leaves. All of the pictures are wonderful.
November 2nd, 2007 at 2:07 pm
Love the contest and what great pictures people sent in. I love L, N, and Q - I can’t decide which one more. Have fun with your sister!
November 2nd, 2007 at 3:09 pm
So hard to pick - I loved so many of them. Adorable children walking in the leaves, holding pumpkins… but I kept coming back to the contemplative “L”
I loved the pop of color in the clothing on the little girl, but the calm, contemplative nature of the photo in contrast to that energy of color.
But, incredibly hard to decide because there are so many winners.
November 2nd, 2007 at 3:28 pm
B&L!!
November 2nd, 2007 at 4:14 pm
photo U….I wish fall would show up in maryland, almost all the leaves are still green!
November 2nd, 2007 at 4:28 pm
There are way too many great pics! I love L and R (among many others). Have a great “vacation!” I moved from MN to Oklahoma last year and I miss all that is great about Minnesota! Enjoy the time with your sister :o)
P.S. I love your blog and am one of your faithful blogstalkers, er, I mean fans…hehe
November 2nd, 2007 at 4:33 pm
what a fun contest - so many beautiful pictures. I like O — would love it even better if fall in MN was a liiiittle more like fall in Hawaii! :o)
November 2nd, 2007 at 4:51 pm
I REALLY love picture ‘O’ - - - so tranquil.
November 2nd, 2007 at 5:12 pm
Picture O — very nice
November 2nd, 2007 at 5:56 pm
Photo F … Family is what it is all about.
November 2nd, 2007 at 5:58 pm
I vote for R. I’m a sucker for a cute kid!!! The genuine look of happiness is irreplaceable!!
November 2nd, 2007 at 6:09 pm
Picture U
They are many nice ones but that one is WOW!
November 2nd, 2007 at 6:14 pm
I HAVE to vote for my own pumpkins! I vote for F!!!! F for Fabulous! Great contest, Noemi!
November 2nd, 2007 at 6:56 pm
s, u, or w…I couldn’t pick just one!!!! Great photos!
November 2nd, 2007 at 6:59 pm
oops..the s with the little girl looking through the hole
November 2nd, 2007 at 7:01 pm
I vote for N because of the creativity.
November 2nd, 2007 at 8:56 pm
I hope I’m not too late but I just couldn’t decide!! I was between L, Q, and W but have settled on W since I LOVE pictures of kids in the leaves. (Yes, that’s my daughter trying to find her brother in the first S!) Plus…what a CUTE kid!!
November 2nd, 2007 at 9:16 pm
Photo G. I feel like I’m there.
November 2nd, 2007 at 9:21 pm
I choose picture F - the Murrays & their 4 little punkins in the pumpkin patch! Gorgeous family & beautiful pumpkins!
Fall means so much more to me since we have been living outside of the US in a tropical country for 4 years. I miss all the gorgeous, vibrant colors on the trees in town & way up into the hills. I miss that smoky smell of fireplaces burning for the first time since summer. I miss the delicious aroma of that hot pot of soup on the stove after coming in from the chilly fall air. (Somehow that hot pot of soup in an 80 degree evening climate just isn’t the same - but if we kick up the air con nice & cool we can still get a similar effect.
I miss carving pumpkins, pumpkin soup, pumpkin chocolate chip cookies, & pumpkin pie. I miss the crunchy sound of leaves under foot on a walk, & the kids jumping in mile high piles of leaves freshly raked. I miss that feeling of gratitude that abounds in every church & in every neighborhood, knowing that Thanksgiving is just around the corner.
November 2nd, 2007 at 9:59 pm
I vote for “H”!
November 3rd, 2007 at 9:27 pm
I vote F! I have triplets. Babies, pumpkins, and cozy nights with my husband that is what fall is to me.
November 4th, 2007 at 9:12 pm
I love Photo H.. very adorbable but very simple!!!! I love It
November 4th, 2007 at 11:51 pm
Photo F, having 4 kids (including twins) definately makes me appreicate the family picture with 4 content babies.
all pictures are amazing though
November 29th, 2007 at 4:25 am
I have to say B …but the second one Leaves in the air
