A trip to the pumpkin patch is totally one of our highlights of the fall season. Our weather hasn't changed really from summer, so it's also one of the ways we celebrate the change in seasons, whether we can physically feel the change or not.
We take a hay ride out into the field, and search for the perfect pumpkin.
Back from the field, we get side tracked with all the cute miniature gourds! They're amazing! Each one is different from the next, at only $1 each, we get tempted to buy them all up, but choose just one each.
Thanks to my 10 year old for this picture of the pumpkins they came home with. And hey! it rained that night, maybe it's fall after all!
In the end, the girls decide to put back their field picked, traditional orange pumpkins, for the pastel pink version. Of course, no trip to the pumpkin patch is complete without a yummy treat of ice cream from the snack barn.
What does fall look like in your home?
