Pumpkin Patch, Buckelew Farms 10.24.08

I went with a group of about 20 of us to the pumpkin patch to pick out pumpkins with the boys. It was a lot of work, and it would be easier with Chris next time. But I think we did it right. I brought a bakcpack for Nate, and Wes brought a backpack for his pumpkin. I brought bags to put our pumpkins in and we packed a lunch to fill our tummies when we were done. We had a blast.

Not everyone, but most of us...

I really thought for the price we paid the boys should pick big pumpkins...BUT NO. They decided they wanted "THEIR SIZE" pumpkins. Wesly was determined to find a white pumpkin and Travis was determined to find "THE PERFECT" pumpkin. He didn't use those words, but he shot down every pumpkin I suggested until he found really, quite the perfect looking little pumpkin.

I actually really wanted to get a cute picture of my boys while we were there, after about 40 shots, I got one of all of them looking. It really isn't that easy.

"Hey Wes, how about this white one?" "No thanks Travis, it's too big."

"See Mom! Here it is!"

I tried to get one more picture, but after about 20 tries, this would have to do.

Overall, we had a fun day!
