Pumpkin Patch

Yesterday we met our friends John, Amy & Bailey at the pumpkin patch to pick out our fall pumpkins. We'd never been to a pumpkin patch before, we usually would just buy them at a store or a set up on the side of the road. We planned to get 3 pumpkins but ended up with 8!! They were a lot cheaper and much better looking than the ones in the store. Jack picked out his little pumpkin and then picked one up for Abbott. Bailey found hers and then wanted to pick all the bumpy pumpkins. After we picked our pumpkins we took them to get weighed and of course had to buy some fried pies, too! We had a fun day and we're looking forward to getting Jack & Bailey together again soon.

Jack's trying to find the perfect pumpkin.

Here it is. Little and unique, just like Jack!

Trying to get these 2 to pose and smile at the same time is just about impossible.

Bailey is cutting her own pumpkin.

Here's our loot!

We were excited to find some John Deere tractors on the farm. We liked this one, it was old and they were able to sit on it and "drive".

We need to get this girl some John Deere gear!

He looks good on a tractor.

Here they are discussing the day's events.

The office. The place was called the Fruit and Berry Patch and they sell all different kinds of fruits and berries throughout the spring and summer and then pumpkins in the fall.

I just thought this was a cool box covered up with the plants.

They found little berries on the ground. Bailey said they were oranges but we're not so sure about that. Fortunately none ended up in their mouths or noses! :)

Jack insisted on the blueberry fried pie. He was so excited to eat it when we got home. My cherry fried pie was delicious and if Jarred doesn't eat his apple one soon, it will probably disappear!
