Pumpkin Picking

On Saturday we went to a nearby pumpkin patch.  We started out with the Kids Corn Maze- Jilly loved  running through the paths.

Until she got a little stuck and this nice boy said he'd help her find the end.

 Next up was the corn box- a brilliant addition to the pumpkin patch this year.

 Then the hayride and a family picture with the scarecrows.

 Searching for the perfect pumpkin

 Found it!

 We went out for dinner to celebrate our pumpkin success.  Jilly and Bryan fought over the milkshake- guess we'll have to get 2 next time.

 It's become a family tradition for us to go to this pumpkin patch (and it's definitely getting better each year.)  Last year  Jilly was a brand new walker and it was fun to see her toddle around the place.  And the previous year I was enormously pregnant and we went in the pouring rain.
