The Pumpkin Patch

Took a couple trips to the patch last weekend.

First I went with my Mom and my big Sister, who popped in from out of town unexpectedly! What a nice surprise that was. My Sister wanted to hit the patch because she lives in the city and figured it would be cheaper than buying them in town. I was shocked at how cheap they actually were. She was right.

The second trip was with the Man Cub. He found out we went and was slightly irritated we didn't take him.

So off we headed down the road again. He went on the hunt for the perfect pumpkin. But it had to be big. The biggest. We've been reading a book every night called The Bumpy Little Pumpkin and it's a favorite so I thought he might chose a small one. Nope. He wanted the biggest one in the patch.

He found it! I made his Nanette pack it to the wagon because it was heavy. I'm nice that way.

Then we went in search of the animals.

Some were small.

Some were big.

Tractor rides! Don't worry,  it didn't move, it was strategically placed there for photo ops. I wasn't brave enough to let him sit on one of the big old tractors.

Me and my Man Cub.

Back in the pumpkin shed, they had great displays.

Now we just have to carve the pumpkin. I'm hoping his Mommy will take over that chore because I don't like doing it. I hope you're all having a great Fall. I am sad to say the weather her has been gloomy and rainy. Occasionally the sun will come out and all is right with the world!
