Pumpkins, Patches, and Plenty of Fun!

OK, so we're going back in time a little bit....

Our tiny town does Halloween BIG, so technically we've been preparing all month for the festivities! Apparently, we're the Pumpkin Capital of the World. Or something like that....

So of course we had to visit one of the hundreds of pumpkin patches in a 3 mile radius of our house....

Max took a good look at all of the pumpkins from the safety of this window spot...

And then he scouted out where he wanted us to go....
We didn't realize that it was going to be such a beautiful day, so we dressed him in his winter farmer gear....he looked adorable, but he was pretty toasty....
We started with some pumpkins that were Max-size....
But those weren't as much fun as the big ones...
Of course, what's a trip to the pumpkin patch without a few family portraits for posterity?




There were sooo many pumpkins to choose from!

Of course, we couldn't just stop at ONE patch! The next week Max and Mommy went with our friends Brady and Will, and THEIR mommies, to another pumpkin patch! This one had huge corn mazes and giant bins of baby pumpkins, or as Max calls them "Pow"!

Not sure why this picture is crooked, but you get the "Children of the Corn" idea!
