Pumpkin Patch

We took the traditional trip to the pumpkin patch on Saturday. Trick or treat is this Thursday, so we had to get going on that! It was a perfect day for it, and everybody picked their perfect pumpkin!

Erin really wanted a "leedle" one.

Joe wanted a tall one.

Ellie was content with a normal orange one. (That's my Ellie!)

While Erin liked the pumpkins, the big fun for her was poking her fingers in the mud. She does this compulsively whenever she sees dirt, and the pumpkin patch had so many muddy spots that it was almost too much for her!


Joe led everyone in a big cheer when we were done (and when Mommy had finally gotten enough pictures).


Then we headed for home.

Isn't it wonderful that their likes are different?

Let's be sure that the mud rat tries seed planting next spring.

Thanks for sharing your day.
Love,

Seed planting is a good idea, AB! I think her favorite color is green, too. She always says her favorite is pink but when she colors, everything is green!

At her height, everything IS green.
