It's Pumpkin Time


We went to a local pumpkin patch last week and the two
older boys each picked out a pumpkin. I don't think
Jonathan will care that he didn't get one this year. He was
just happy to tag along. You could either pick a $3-$5 dollar
pumpkin that had already been harvested or pick your own
out of the pumpkin patch for $3. We opted for the
pumpkin picking experience and away we went! The boys
quickly found what they wanted and we broke the pumpkins
off their stems. They are now waiting to be carved.

These are the larger, more expensive pumpkins. I think
more like $9-$15 dollars each.


There was also a miniature straw bale maze for the kids to
run through. They quickly mastered it! Can you tell it was
cold? The temperature wasn't so bad, but the wind was
icy!


Here is my handsome husband doing what he does best--
being a daddy!

Pumpkin picking sounds like fun - too bad it was so chilly. At least it looks like everybody had fun - your boys are so cute.
We missed you guys tonight for Sunday Dinner. We'll catch you all next month. :)
