Pumpkin Patch

Melissa and I took advantage of the beautiful fall day yesterday and took the kidlings to the pumpkin patch.

Of course, as soon as we get there, Taylor wants Aunt "Miss-AAAA" to hold her hand as we go into the field in search of the perfect pumpkin. (They have TONS already picked at the front of the house, but there is something about it for those kids to search the whole field to find the one they want!)
Keegan wandered pretty far off and found the one he wanted, it was hilarious watching him haul it back over to us! Sadly, only to find out some of it was mushed and that it wouldn't make the cut to come home with us!

Taylor wasn't too sure about all the vines that would get tangled on her feet so she had nothing to do with finding a pumpkin for herself. I don't blame her, I would want to protect my face too if it was as cute as hers!



We usually go to the pumpkin patch with Grandma and Grandpa Wilkinson. Since it was spare of the moment decision to go it was just us. We missed Grandpa when it was time to haul the wheel barrow full of pumpkins out of the field....so we made Taylor do the dirty work! Okay, maybe Melissa was 'designated' to do it. :)



After we made it out of the field and pumpkins were paid for we wanted to get some pics of the kids....good luck! Here are a few (of many) trying to get them all to sit, look at the camera and smile.



As soon as we gave up with the group picture, Taylor found the perfect little seat. Then she wanted everyone to try out her little seat. She wasn't happy until the seat was full!



We did manage to get a pretty good shot of myself and Taylor...better than last years crying one!



Taylor loves getting together with her cousins (and I with Melissa) to play and chat! She gets so excited when I tell her we are going to see "Ashon" (Ashton) but VERY excited when she sees Aunt "Miss-AAAA".

I loved the pictures and the scrapbook pages. I have that same kit- it's a good one. I just made an invite with it. I'm jealous you got to go to a punkin' patch. I've been searching for one all over the place up here, but have been unable to find one. I guess I'm stuck with the local grocery store. Have a happy Halloween!
