First off: To all of my American readers, how was your Thanksgiving?
One of my favorite places in the Nashville area is Cheekwood, a beautiful outdoor garden and historic mansion. They have wonderful programs for kids, classes for adults, and seasonal displays. A few weeks ago, we made our annual trek to the Cheekwood pumpkin festival, featuring their famous pumpkin houses.
I have a friend whose oldest child is the same age as Little Buddy (only days apart), and this was my third year going with her. (I suppose it’s officially a tradition now!) Of course the kids loved the pumpkins the most, but I was especially intrigued by the white mums. Have you ever seen white mums? I hadn’t.
