Pumpkin Pickin'

With the cooler weather it's starting to feel like fall around here. We headed to the pumpkin patch today with Mimi to enjoy the day and find a perfect pumpkin.


They have tons of things to do there (they better at $12 per person.....thank goodness everyone but Claire was free today!) They had a bounce house, a corn pit, animals, a hay maze for the kids and quite a few other things. Most of the activities were overshadowed by the "scary people" in the Scary Fun Barn that we walked past. Claire did not like them one bit and immediately wanted to go home. The bounce house got her mind off of that!






After a picnic lunch we took the tractor hay ride over to the pumpkin patch. Claire had fun running around....but I think Mimi and I had the most fun searching for the more unusual pumpkins.


Claire's inspecting our pumpkin picks and giving her approval:



I really liked the bumpy weird looking ones! Here's what we ended up with:
