We Are Always Running for the Thrill of it, Thrill of it

It's no secret that pumpkin patch day is my favoritest day of the year. Although, this year I was a little bit surprised because we were going - late in the day.


Aaron likes to go before we've had a frost to kill the vines (so, he got his wish).

I like to go when it's not dusty (I did not get my wish).


And the kids had a blast.



There's only so many words necessary when discussing the awesomeness that is the pumpkin patch.

We went this weekend too, right before William totally lost his voice. It was awesome.

I love that last photo - it's Darwin aka Captain Pumpkin, Superhero.

Wonder what his magic powers would be...

I'm so glad you had a blast and you have cute pumkins too, of the 2 legged and orange kind.
I've been trying to find an itty bitty baby pumkin at the store and they charge 3 bucks for a freaking pumkin no bigger than my fist?

Schaakes? (However you spell that?)
Eliot's class is going on the 14th. Last year is was so muddy that we just had a hayrack ride around the patch and then came back to the barn to pick out our pumpkins. It kinda sucked.

I love pumpkin patches. I haven't been yet. Guess it's time to get out there and thump a few squash and run rampant through the vines!

Oh...lucky you! They didn't renew the water rights for our big pumpkin patch here instead deciding that a housing development would be better...

I want a pumpkin patch. I don't know one around here. Sigh. :(
