The weather here has finally cooled down. It was a gorgeous day with bright blue sky and sparkling sunshine. I decided to take the kids to the pumpkin patch at the local church here in town. I am used to going to a farm and taking a hayride out to a patch and seeing the pumpkins in the field. Well it isnt that way down here in the south. We have churches that have pumpkins delivered and they place them on their lawns and that is considered a pumpkin patch. I am usually disappointed and so is Emily. She got a taste of the real pumpkin patches when we lived in Virginia and Maine. Casey doesnt know the difference so he thinks it is great. The amount of pumpkins this year was definately down from last year and we never get our big pumpkin at the patch, we always purchase it somewhere else. Once we arrived, Casey thought that the pumpkins were balls and that he could throw them in the air and let them drop to the ground. He is such a typical BOY!! We got four little pumpkin for our dining room table and then Casey got to jump in the inflatable for a while. Then when we were down, it was off to the fruit stand to get our big pumpkin. Needless to say we are surrounded by lots of orange "balls" now!

Well, they are round aren't they. Sounds like a ball to me. Did he smash any? Cute photos.
aRE You kiddin' me? We southern folk have not intention on going out to a field and pickin' a punkin. Just have it close by the car ---- NOT too far to walk.
just kiddin' I bet it would be fun to go out to a REAL pumpkin patch. The church will have to do for now.
What fun! He is right they somewhat do look like balls. This is my favorite time of the year!
