Fall Fun With Family Mommy & Me Monday - Music Monday - Meet Me Monday


This is our second year going to the Pumpkin Patch. First I went with my son's class as chaperone and then I took them another day just to relax and enjoy without school rules and too many kids. The place was packed! The kids loved the animals and rides and fun. I was there too :) 

Yay I'm in a photo and that's because dh got home in time to come to the patch with us and I asked him to take a photo of us.
This was our first time purchasing a pumpkin. Maybe dh will carve it as he promised...maybe I'll try my hand at making pie...maybe we'll sew the seeds next spring. We should.
I would have put them in but it was dirty. 
I got them water and they wanted my gatorade. But they loved their water. 

It was a nice little outing. This should be one of our traditions.

Those are great pictures and looked to be a great time! Love it! I haven't bought a pumpkin either. I don't know what I'd do with it...break down and learn how to make a pie maybe? I don't know if we're ready for that yet ;)- congrats to you for going twice and getting in front of the camera!

Love this song. Thriller has got to be the No.1 all time Halloween song! Good job Callie!

Cakeblast October 25, 2010 4:36 PM  

I love Dem dancing Bones! Of course Michael Jackson Thriller changed music video forever - still not just one of my favorite Halloween vids, but one of my favorite vids period, ever.

Also loved the Pumpkin Patch Pics!

Lorie Shewbridge October 25, 2010 4:46 PM  

Love the pumpkin patch photos, my boys used to love going there when they were kids, I miss that here in FL. We go citrus picking now when they visit. :-)
Great songs for Halloween, I knew someone would come up with Thriller. I think the Skeleton Dance is just SO cute, I almost posted it today myself, but I figured 3 was enough. I am so glad you put it up.
Hope you have a great Halloween... can't wait to see the kids in their costumes. HUGS!!

I'm just the MOM October 25, 2010 8:01 PM  

Love the pumpkin patch! Now all I have to do is take my little ones before Halloween lol.
You have a gorgeous family!
Happy mommy and me monday!

This should definitely be a new fall tradition for you all. I'm glad you had a great time. I think your son looks very much like you in the pic where he's holding your face. :)

Ms Bibi October 26, 2010 11:33 AM  

Love the pictures. Yes, I agree sounds like a great new tradition.

My kids love the Skeleton dance,lol

I love pumpkin patches! Youre so lucky you have one! We dont. Its such a bummer.

Cascia October 27, 2010 9:18 AM  

It looks like you had a lot of fun. I didn't get the chance to take the kids to a pumpkin patch this year. We were too busy moving. Hopefully we can do this next year.

~ Noelle October 27, 2010 3:47 PM

we have gone the past 2 years...
broxton was just a baby the first year... and now he enjoyed it more!

JDaniel4's Mom October 27, 2010 8:10 PM  

We loved our time at the pumpkin patch. I wish I could make a pie. I bet yours will be great. Our pumpkins are faceless and uncarved still. JDaniel reminded me we really need to take care of it.
