Pumpkin Patch 2012

It is that time of year when the temperatures starts to drop and the time changes, which means autumn is here and it is time for our annual trip to the pumpkin patch.  Last year we were too late in arriving at the pumpkin patch because we had some costume snafu's and when we got them all straightened out the pumpkins were all sold and there was no more pumpkin patch.

I am pleased to say that this time around we were ready with our outfits and the timing was great because all the pumpkins were out so we could have our choice for the taking.  The only problem was the girls didn't want to cooperate with having their pictures taken so we didn't get any of those great sister pics as we did in the past.  This year it was all about touching and lifting the pumpkins.  Avery had to touch and feel every pumpkin she came across and Emily wanted to lift them, which really surprised me at how strong she is when she picked up some of the larger pumpkins that even I would have struggled to lift.  In the end we had a great time and the girls loved choosing their pumpkins to take home even if they wouldn't face the camera to capture the moment.
