Pickin' the Perfect Pumpkin

So I thought it was time to come out of the "Twilight" zone and back to reality posting.
I think we picked the one weekend in October that was more like winter than fall to go to the pumpkin patch. We went a few weeks ago and we FROZE. Yes, in the pictures it looks warm but let me tell you it was very cold and windy. I think it was the fastest time set ever for our family to pick out the perfect pumpkin. By the time we found the ones we wanted both Brinley and Rylee were crying from being so cold (if you look close enough to the pics you'll see tears). Baylee was having fun despite the super cold weather. This little pumpkin patch is right down the street from our house. They have a little corn maze, tons of pumpkins (it's fun to watch them grow all summer long), and they set out a bunch of tractors you can climb all over. Since getting our pumpkins, the girls have changed their minds several times trying to decide how they want to carve theirs. I guess we'll find out next week!

The important part was that you got great pictures even in the freezing cold!

The girls all look super cute. That's really fun that you get to watch them grow too. Jacob saved a pumpkin seed when we carved ours last night so we can grow them next year - but I told him they take up too much space. We'll have to come see the ones near you next summer.
