PUMPKIN PATCH! (round one)

Okay, how does one go the the pumpkin patch and not take 400 pictures? Could they possibly cram any more photo opportunities into one farm?

We went last Sunday and had the best day! I was actually feeling bad for people not at the patch that day- high 68 degrees. It was ideal. We have always gone a little later in October and I was shocked at how not crowded (there has got to be a better way to say that) it was. It was awesome. Long sleeves, short sleeves- it didn't matter. The weather was beautiful, sunny, no wind, and perfectly comfortable!

Riding out to get pumpkins- first year ever it was just us on the wagon with hundreds of awesome pumpkins to choose from!

We kept pointing out options to Big Boy and he kept saying "not big enough, not big enough..."
We finally talked him into a medium-sized one and thoroughly convinced him it was the biggest pumpkin EVER.

Poor big boy. Like me, he has trouble opening his eyes looking into the sun. He squinted the whole time we were there, the sun was so bright and beautiful!

Did I mention how much fun it was?

And I will get the pleasure of going with each child and their class again this week! Big Boy will get to come back to Walter's on Tuesday and Sis and I will head to Applejacks on Thursday. All this and trying to acquire outfits for school pics next week, too. ;) As Sissy sings, "Halloween is almost here and I can hardly wait..."

  1. I'm jealous! We went on Saturday and it was HOT and crowded. We still had a blast of course, but I kept thinking it could've been a tad better had it been a little cooler...

    Love Sissy's boots!!!

  2. Lucky! I wish I could say the weather was as nice for us when we went to Applejack Pumpkin Patch last Sunday. Looks like a good time!
