Pumpkinville

Almost every Thursday I get together with Hayley, and we do something fun.  This week Brittany could come too!  

On Wednesday I went visiting teaching and saw a note about a school field trip to Pumpkinville on Richmond Road.  I figured it wasn't far, so I found it online and called.  Guess what?  It's free to go!  You only pay if you buy pumpkins, so Hayley and Brittany and I decided that would be our Thursday outing.  We dressed up our kids for some cute pictures.  Poor Luke probably never wants to see that stupid leopard costume again!

Luke in front of a bean bag throwing game.  He had just woken up, so he wasn't very excited yet.

Brittany's little boy, Benson, loved the pumpkins.  He was hiding behind this one, and we couldn't get him to come over for a group picture.

Jared says this picture could go on a Jones soda bottle.  A little neglected forlorn kid in front of a random huge pirate ship.  He does look pretty forlorn, doesn't he?  He was actually staring at the rocks.

There were wagons at the pumpkin patch that you could take into the field to pick pumpkins or just use them to load up at the little store.  I put Luke in a wagon to take a picture, but he didn't like it.

Luke and Benson in the field.  Most of the pumpkins were already picked, and the ones that were left weren't very good.

The best pumpkins were in this little store area.  Luke loved the little ones best.  He would pick them up and throw them. 

I took his binky out for a minute to try to get a picture of him smiling.  He started sucking on pumpkins and eating hay, so it went back in.

It was a pretty good day.
