Pumpkin Day

Look at those smiles! That's the picture I was trying to get!! Here the girls are enjoying some homemade kettle corn before we head out to the pumpkin patch.

Today we went to the pumpkin patch. Basically, we're too cheap to pay the prices for the pumpkins there, so we just went for the rides and the pictures. It was finally an overcast morning, though not entirely chilly so it was a perfect start to a great day!

There was almost nobody there, so we were able to chase chickens, ride wagons, and go on rides and bouncers without wait.

You should have seen their faces when the swings first started. They were so fast they even made Mama and Papa nervous!
Our pumpkin "carving" wasn't exactly traditional. My mom had given us some lightbright type pegs that were perfect for Allison to hammer in, so that is what we did instead. Neither girl really liked touching the guts of the pumpkin.
