My little pumpkins

Pumpkin patches are one of my favorite places to go - maybe it's because of the great picture opportunities. However, it always seems to be so difficult to get to one with our busy schedules and there aren't any that are close.

"Should I touch this one or not?"

This year we went to one near San Marco and it was pretty good. The boys loved walking or more like running around all of the pumpkins. The first thing on the agenda was to try and get a few pictures which is always a chore with a 3 year old who doesn't want to look at the camera and a 1 year old who is a BUSY body and WON'T stay still.

The best one I had of me and the boys - not great but it will have to do.

Doesn't it look like Brody wants to just say "OK, enough with the pictures"


At least Trevor is sitting.

After picking out a pumpkin to carve - this will the first time we have ever done this but we thought it might be fun - maybe we are kind of crazy - oh well. Brody also picked out a couple of small ones for he and Trevor to color on - should be fun as well.

We then headed to San Marco to eat - always interesting with Trevor who doesn't like to eat much and is usually ready for bed around 8:00, but thankfully he did OK.

It was a great night and now we just need to find time to carve & color the pumpkins.
