One of our favorite October traditions is to head to the pumpkin patch and pick our own pumpkins. Emily was so excited she giggled the entire way in the van. We started with a hay ride to the field.
Then comes the fun part---looking for the perfect pumpkin. Megan found hers right away. She just wanted the biggest one in the field. Emily and Tyler were another story. Emily looked for the perfect round one and Tyler just wanted a perfect one with no dirt.
Yeah, it took forever. The rest of the wagon was waiting for Tyler and Emily to find their pumpkins. It really is hard to find a really round pumpkin.
We finally got 5 pumpkins loaded on the wagon, though. The driver of the tractor even gave us a bonus pumpkin in case one of ours just wasn't good enough when we got home. We had a great time and even great weather. Now we'll just have to wait another week to carve them. That's the part Megan and Tyler like the best!

We have to buy our pumpkins at walmart, the pumpkin patch ones cost a fortune. Yeah we haven't left this house since we saw you in the Spring. I guess we did go to SF. Reese's hair was getting long and we thought why not donate it. Now it's just a nightmare trying to get to 10 inches.
