Pumpkin Picking
Today Brian took the day off, Pop Pop and Uncle Bud came into town, and we used our day off from school to head to Tim's Pumpkin Patch. It was a great day. We arrived early, beating the "No School" crowds and really enjoyed ourselves.
A family picture. We don't do this enough and we should. That is going to be my goal. It is hard to give the big camera to strangers. They are scared of it and end up taking crappy pictures. Go figure. To be honest, the only reason we did this one is because Elizabeth needed a family picture for school and I couldn't find a recent enough one. I will get better. I promise.
Everyone loves playing in the corn. I think I was fishing corn out of the washing machine for five loads after these clothes went through.

Elizabeth took a break from riding with the pumpkins, or whining that she wasn't riding, to help Daddy push all the pumpkins.

I love this pumpkin jacket I got her last fall. Only downfall......I wasn't expecting the height growth spurt she's had and it could be a tad bigger. Oh well, it is still so cute.
The kids loved the hay maze. We grown-ups just loved that you had to CRAWL your way out. I was kind of worried when Pop Pop got there........but he crawled out with the rest of us. What a trooper. The kids must have gone threw 5 times, and would have done more if we let them. Uncle Bud was a sport heading in dutifully each time.
We had to feed the animals too. There was an older guy there showing Pat how to get the food out of the machine you buy it from for free. Great! Luckily we came up with some change to override that new skill.
I just love Elizabeth's shirt. She has a lot of Halloween shirts this year. I couldn't resist all the cuteness.
There were the cutest kittens running around (yes I really said that....and sort of mean it). Pat and Liz loved petting them.
And, there was a Donna. And Pat went near her. And Pat TOUCHED her. We were amazed. Maybe Ciochi can bring Donna back to her house.
Our little pumpkins.
There's my big strong guy. When he was a tiny baby I used to call him my littlest pumpkin lumpkin. Now look at him. I am amazed how big and grown-up both kids are. And, amazed at how cool they are :)
