So we FINALLY had a nice day and got to go out to the pumpkin patch. It was a lot of fun and a BEAUTIFUL day for it. and luckily it wasn't too awfully muddy out there considering all the rain we have had. So we took the little hay ride (no hay actually but a tractor ride) out to the pumpkin patch and walked around looking for the perfect pumpkins. We got two great pumpkins. Combined they weighed 43 pounds lol. So I cleaned out one of the pumpkins... cutting throough the top it was almost 4 inches thick YIKES lol. I'm going to go out and get one of those pumpking carving knives as I don't have a small knife with a serated edge. but I roasted the seeds with some olive oil and garlic salt... SO good. I love pumpkin seeds.

anyway... here are some pics

She's so cute! I love pumpkin patches. If Clara could sit up on her own, I'd probably try harder this year to get to one. ;) I might still go, but I don't know how well I'd do without someone with me to help make sure she didn't topple over, haha. Halloween is a neat time of year, I love all the fall colors!

Hannah has such a cute grin!

:love: How so Cute.. Hanna looks like you found a pumpkin.. Did you carve it?? Now mom dont forget to use the meat for a pie & also roast the seeds.. Oh pumpkin seeds roasted with seasoning is the greatest..

I didn't keep the guts and make a pie... but I still have another pumpkin to open up. but I did keep the seeds and roasted them :D and then nearly had to kill Beezer cause he got a hold of the bag last night after we went to bed... but with my super duper mom hearing I caugth him before he got a chance to eat them LOL I told him he was testing fate stealing my pumpkin seeds LOL.

Thank you everyone :)

we haven't carved it yet... I am going out today to get one of those little pumpkin carving knives. will be easier than trying to use the knives we have. Plus I have to pick up some candy to hand out anyway.

Finn's mom yeah I don't blame you. we took Hannah last year before she could really walk... THAT was interesting. trying to haul around a baby and some pumpkins. IF you do... I suggest putting her in some sort of carrier or wrap so you can just carry her around on you instead of in your arms lol. that was our biggest mistake and it was quite the adventure.
