Pumpkin Patch

Can I just start out by saying...wow.  "Time flies" is the understatement of the day for me today.  How did these girls get so grown up?  Wasn't it just last year that we packed up the family and headed to the farm for pumpkin patch family night?  If our favorite farm was still around, we'd probably be there, but it would be different.  My girls are young women now and they'd probably be too big to ride the ponies.  Sniff.  I find myself flooded with memories of their little bodies riding the ponies, petting the animals in the petting zoo, fingering the hay on the hay bales, watching the pig races and running through the corn maze.  What special times those were!

Anyway, it's now two days before Halloween, and we hadn't been to a pumpkin patch.  We got a tip from the Holbrook's that Bruce's Produce had a little makeshift patch with great prices.  Check out the size of the pumpkins that we got!  They don't look as big in the photos, but they were heavy.  All three were $15.  Can't beat that!
