Pumpkin Patch

My favorite seasons are fast approaching. I absolutly love the fall and winter. And I love the holidays that come with it. Since we have been married, James and I have carved pumpkins once. That one time was my first time carving a pumpkin (that I can recall). Growing up my family mostly painted pumpkins. This year, James decided that he wanted to carve a few pumpkins for our church halloween party (all the pumpkins will have a star wars theme, if any of you know James then this will be no surprise to you). We decided to take a little trip to a pumpkin farm to find the perfect pumpkins. This was also a new experience for me. We drove about 20 miles out of town to a cute pumpkin and christmas tree farm. This place had many things to do, all of which cost an arm and a leg. We enjoy seeing animals so before even looking at the pumpkins we headed over to the farm animals. We were able to pet and feed everything there; chickens, turkeys, geese, ducks, alpacas, lamas, ponies, goats, and these weird miniature cows. I took this really cute picture of James with his new hair do...



We walked up and down many rows of pumpkins. James has a great eye for the perfect pumpkin. We finally left 2 hours later with 5 pumpkins: 2 large ones, 1 medium one, and 2 small ones. I have them arranged on my fireplace until we decide to carve them. I will post pictures when we finish the pumpkins.
