Our annual trip to the Pumpkin Patch, 2011.
We went right after church on Sunday, b/c
we had been rained out the previous evenings. I it all planned to go in the evening, the golden hour, and
had all their outfits planned.
Well, it all changed on a whim…oh well you can’t win them all. I didn't want to go when the sun was so bright and high, sigh....
We found some huge pumpkins this year, also
with huge price tags…so instead we just some pictures with them.
Love all the gourds…so beautiful for table
accents for the holidays!
They each got to pick a wee-be-little
pumpkin and a gourd. That was in
our budget. (Shhh, don’t tell, but
I bought our pumpkin at Publix this year for $5.99)
The girls had fun picking their little
treasures. I love that they all
cooperated for the picture!
Sometimes that can be challenging, and I can break out into a sweat, glistening! If you are a Mom always trying to get
those great photographs you understand.
This is one of the photos that only a
mother gets and loves. Something I
will cherish forever. I love the
look on Evelyn’s face as she’s wiping her gooey hand on Mabs.
Even though this one is not focused that
great, it’s another one of those…she was reaching in for the first time and was
surprised at how “weird” it felt.
Evelyn getting into the seeds, she’s not
afraid of a whole lot these days.
She loves getting outside and experiencing life and all it has to offer.
My sweet Mabel, such a hard worker and
follows through on her tasks…we’d be lost without her dedication!!! And, I couldn’t have been more blessed
with such a handsome, loving, hard-working, go-getter hubby!!! He makes me so happy, most of the time.
haha
She’s got the pan of seeds ready to bake in
the oven and then munch on while watching ZooKeeper on a lazy Sunday
afternoon!
Hope you all had a fun, safe Happy
Halloween!!
Love,
The Howe’s

I had a blast with pumpkin carving, too, this year. Did it twice: once in Massachusetts with my eldest (sophomore in college) daughter. Then again, home in California, with my younger children.
