Pumpkin Patch

Last week my sister asked me if I wanted to take the boys to the Pumpkin Patch. I had never actually been to a "pumpkin patch" before, so I was totally game. We decided that we would go on Saturday afternoon. Matthew had a total ball. We left Alex at home with daddy because it was VERY cold here and VERY windy at Green Bluff. We picked out a pumpkin and then went into the play area for about 45 minutes so that Matthew could jump on all of the inflatable toys. He even met a nice older boy who helped him through one of the inflatable toys that required a little bit of climbing.

Here are some pictures. I know that I have derilect in getting pictures of Alex up, and I will do that, but I have most of the pictures at 2 months on my mom's camera. We are going for family dinner tonight, so I will blog a little bit from there. I can't believe how big he is getting and how much he is changing every day. Alex and I are headed to Del Rio to visit my friend Laurie in a couple of weeks, so his three month pictures will be taken there.

Looking at the pumpkins:


Let's see what's over there:


So many pumpkins, so little time:


I found one...better sit on it so no one else gets it:


Pumpkin picking makes me laugh:


Gee, I don't look like my mommy and Aunt do I?


The nice boy who helped me in the bouncer:

Hi, just found your site randomly. I can't believe you've never been to a pumpkin patch. Here in Wisconsin it's an annual field trip in grade school.

Nice pictures.

Those must be pretty special pumpkins they grew without any vines. LOL

I'm so glad you discovered the pumpkin patch! I went to one several times when I lived in Bozeman and loved it - but I always wished I had been taken when I was a kid! Matthew is so very lucky that you took him!
