My family and I go to Lubbock Parks & Recreation's 'Pumpkin Trail' every year. Walking through the hundreds of decorated pumpkins and seeing all the kids dressed up and laughing really puts me in the spirit of Halloween and the fall season!
Thankfully, the Pumpkin Trail is BACK again this year and it's better than ever!
