Pumpkin Patch Picture Parade anyone??

We took Abraham to a local petting zoo that has a pumpkin patch as well. We haven't had much rain here in the Ohio river valley since July, so the pumpkins are puny but we sure did have fun!

Lets see those pumpkin patch pictures people!!

My big kids were on fall break last week so we went to a great pumpkin patch with a petting zoo, a hayride, and a corn maze. I think this is the 8th year for this tradition. Hope we can keep it up, but I'm sure my 11 year old will be "too cool" for this soon.

Here are a couple of pictures of Parker. The first one is from a few weeks ago at our local Apple Cider Mill. The second one is from last week and was taken on his first Kindergarten field trip to the Pumpkin Patch.
