Pumpkin Palooza

We sure didn't have much of a summer but Mother Nature is making up for it with some very nice fall weather.  We took advantage of it this weekend and visited a local farm and a pumpkin patch.  On Saturday we visited Thomasson Family Farm in Enumclaw, Washington which is about 10-15 miles south of our new house.  It was a great place.  They had all kinds of activities for the kids - sandbox, a pretend cow to milk, slides, bubbles, rubber duck races, a big box full of corn to jump in, tractor rides and a petting zoo!  By the time we had hit all of the attractions we were too worn out to pick out some pumpkins from their field.  So we called it a day.  On Sunday after Jack's 1st haircut (see prior post) we headed to a nearby pumpkin patch.  It was another beautiful day.  The kids picked out an assortment of pumpkins large and small.  They are currently sitting on our front porch just waiting to be carved!  I'm saving that task for when it gets closer to Halloween so they don't get too mushy.  Here are some pictures from our fun in the sun!
