Pumpkin Time!

What a great time of year! It is even better with a crazy 15 month old and a great family. Yesterday we got the chance to go pumpkin picking with Paps, Di Di, and G... Q had a blast! If anyone is interested in a good place to take the kids during this time of year it is definitely pumpkin picking at Washington Farms. They had a whole bunch of things to do there, but we were close to nap time so we only got to partake in a few. Even Britton said that he is very excited to go back again next year when Q can enjoy the attractoins better. We did get to experience our first pig race, what a hoot! Here are the pigs before they are released from their cage and then when they are in full "sprint". I only wish they would have done more than a one lap race because it was so funny!
After the pig races we went on to pumpkin picking. Q was so excited when she saw how many "punke" (pumpkins) there were. G did find his new calling as a pumpkin picker; he found all of the good ones for us.

Q worked so hard to pick up this pumpkin; she was so proud of herself!
We were going to take her on a hay ride and "cow train" ride after the picking experience, but who knew that riding in a wheelbarrow full of pumpkins woud be just as much fun!


When we made it back to the car she didn't want to give up her little pumpkin Di Di and Paps got her! Daddy got to practice his carving skills later in the afternoon. Can you tell what he made?
