Pumpkin Picking

Halloween is just two weeks away, so we needed to get some pumpkins!

We headed to a local farm market and parked in what must have been the last space available – everyone had the same idea for this drizzly Sunday morning.

Pumpkin perfection. Where's the carving knife??

We checked out the pumpkins and walked through the tepees they had set up.  Those were very cool, they were dark inside and there were dozens and dozens of carved jack-o-lanterns lining the walls of the biggest one.

Just a few of the amazing carved pumpkins.

We skipped the hay ride because it was cold and rainy, but it was very popular.  Hopefully next year the weather will be better!

Anna's pumpkin is nearly as big as she is!
Carolyn really liked this little white pumpkin.

When all was said and done, we came home with three pumpkins, a half dozen pumpkin donuts, some cider, a butternut squash and Indian corn to hang on the door.  What a fun way to spend the morning!
