The Pumpkin Patch

We are loving this fall weather and the clothes that we can now wear- gloves and scarves.
We went to a pumpkin patch close by (called Joe's Place) and it was a simple little farm with a cute little store. There was also a hayride to go on, so on it we went! Jesse got a free apple and that seemed to be his favorite part.
They provided wheelbarrows to pick up the pumpkins with, and Jesse insisted riding on the inside. Charlotte was strapped into a carrier and was toasty and warm and sleepy.
Jesse found many small pumpkins his own size to pick up.
We asked him to get one for his baby sister and he thought we meant he was to give it to her. He came up to me (I was carrying her) and said "Here baby sister!"
There were what we came home with. Jesse was pretty pleased.
The day ended with snickerdoodles and apple cider from the store. It was a nice day to get out of the house and we now have pumpkins we look forward to carving!
