Pumpkin Patch Picture Parade...
So we finally made it to the pumpkin patch on Sunday...it was only 88 degrees!
 The kids were such troopers in their not-quite-appropriate-for-that-kind-of-heat-pumpkin outfits! Please join in and post your pumpkin pictures!

Karen, I can't believe how big your two are getting. They are so cute and they don't even look that hot considering the temp!!! Good kids.
Ddahl - he is a cutie and there are tons of pumpkins there! Here are three from me. Different pumpkin patches, one pic with cousin. One of them has a huge field of sunflowers - it is just beautiful and we had a pretty, sunny day there.

aww! very cute everyone!
I left the memory card out of the camera the day we went. I didn't realize it until after I had "taken" a good 50 pictures. Blonde Mommy Moment!

All the kids are SO cute w/ the pumpkins! I couldn't go this year. We're in a severe drought and go figure, it down pours on the day we'reall supposed to go to the pumpkin patch. I'll have to wait for the Halloween picture parade!
Keep the pumpkin pics coming b/c they are so cute. Love this time of year. Take care,
