Pumpkin Pickin'

It's that time of year again, even if the weather is making us think otherwise.   Sunday the kids and I made our annual pilgrimage to the pumpkin patch.   It was a rather warm fall day, but that added to our enjoyment.

I didn't drag my huge camera with me since I already was solely in charge of four kids.  So, iphone pics it is.  Sorry Cooper, that you were partially cut out of the group shot!

Kinley had a great time walking through the pumpkin patch, turning over numerous pumpkins.  The bunnies were also pretty high on her list.

Look at this crew!  I have to say that they were a pretty good bunch.  They were completely over my photographing at this point and declared this the LAST picture.  That's would be why Kinley is looking a the ground and not at me. 

The big kids were dying to get to the slide by the time the hayride was over.

And after that we headed to the haybarn where they romped and carried on and climbed and ziplined in the hay for nearly 45 minutes.   By then I was bone tired from our trip to Penn State the night before and Kinley was more than ready for a nap.   I lured the kids away with promises of cold treats to quench the thirst that they had worked up while running around all afternoon.

So, 6 pumpkins now decorate my porch and wait patiently to be carved in preparation for Trick or Treat!  Stay tuned.
