First Pumpkin Patch...

My girlfriend and I finally got around to taking our little bugs down to the Tanaka Farms Pumpkin Patch (nothing like waiting till the week of Halloween when the pumpkins are all picked through and beginning to decompose)! This year we mainly went for the Kodak moments... we already planned out how awesome it will be next year...  1) the girls will be more into it (not babies anymore), B) we will go earlier in the season before the patch is picked through and pumpkins begin to decompose, 3) our Kodak moments on the pile o' pumpkins will be better choreographed with the sun not directly in the girls' eyes, 4) our Kodak moments will include costumes, and E) petting zoo and wagon ride!
Even though the girls are too young to remember or appreciate the mommy & me field trip, we thought it was worth it...
Next year we know to park closer, but the long walk was good for us

It was too bright for her to look up in every picture (bummer!)



Feeling playful...

"Ooooo that headband looks mighty tempting"...

"Maybe if I just grab it...."

He looks the same but a foot shorter! How cute! My goal is to go earlier next year so we have pumpkins that haven't been picked through... awesome experience for the little ones! Do you go during the other seasons? i.e. strawberry/watermelon/christmas trees?
