We took the kids to the Pumpkin Patch at Fir Point Farms yesterday. It was a bit rainy and muddy, but we had fun. They each got to pick out a pumpkin to put out on the front porch. With all the choices, we were there for a while as they made their selection, then changed their mind a few dozen times.
Talon is a bit of a clean freak, so he didn't want one that had any mud on it. That made the selection even more difficult!
Ah, finally, he found one! He tried to pick it up, then decided it was too big... and muddy! After a bit of a discussion, we decided that Mommy would carry it, and we would wash it off so he wouldn't get dirty. Whew... Done!
I told them all to say 'cheese' and smile for the picture. That is exactly what I got.... their cheese-faces!
Daddy and Chad chose not to tromp through the mud in the field, so they stayed back and kept Nolan. When we got done, he played on the big pumpkins outside the store.
Of course, sitting on top of it wasn't quite as fun as banging on it and splashing the water off, while squeeling in his high pitched voice!
(And notice the very large bruise on his forehead.... that's what comes of getting mad and head-butting the tiled kitchen floor!)
