The Pumpkin Patch

Friday, October 17th-- We went to the pumpkin patch today. J. had a play date with our favorite little guy, J.L., so he joined us in the fun. Every year, we hit at least one pumpkin patch for photos and so we can choose the best carving pumpkins. The kids love to run around and play amongst the pumpkins. This was the first year for S. and he had a field day playing with...and eating, the hay. This year we went to two different pumpkin patches. The first one we went to had a great set up for photos along with rows and rows of large pumpkins to chose our carving pumpkins. Our second pumpkin patch is really a farmers market that always has fabulous and interesting gourds, 3 for a $1.00. We all try to find the most interesting gourds and add them to our Thanksgiving cornucopia centerpiece.
