Pumpkin Patch!

It's time to get our pumpkins and start carving!  We tend to wait until closer to Halloween before carving so that they will still look pretty good that evening.

This year we heard about a church that has filled their yard with pumpkins and is putting the money they make toward missions, so we headed over there to support their cause.  As we got out of the car, Cari said she just wanted to pick up two pumpkins at the church and we would get a few more over at Walmart for cheap.

I followed my kids around with the camera as they tried to pick the perfect pumpkins.
I had some other great shots of the baby, but decided to post this one because it shows that she NEVER stops moving.





After a while, I looked up from my camera and saw Cari paying at the counter.  She had SIX pumpkins.  That's just a few more than the two she claimed to limit herself to.  At least the money goes to a good cause.

Before we left, we walked the kids over to the display they had setup for taking photos.  We sat the kids down and took the standard photo of our kids:

Carving photos should be posted by Halloween!
