They're Everywhere

Pumpkins are everywhere these days and we are enjoying them. 

Fulton had face painting at school one day last week and came home with this cute friend on his face. I can't believe he sat still long enough for Mrs. Vin to paint this.

And Friday he went to the pumpkin patch with his friends at school. This was the pumpkin he picked out, so Saturday morning we decorated it. He was so proud of his pick.

 And if Friday wasn't enough for him, we took him back on Saturday so he could get the full effect, complete with a picture of him in front of everything. I know he was thrilled. As we pulled up I could tell he was thinking, seriously, you guys are bringing me here again.

He is such a silly boy. Friday Mrs. Vin said they took turns petting the goat (gross), we opted out of that experience on Saturday.

 But we did have to scour the pumpkins to pick just the right one. Matt likes to analyze all of them, although they all look the same to me.

No pumpkin patch is complete without a hay ride. We opted for the hay ride instead of the train ride because we noticed it seemed to take longer coming back and we thought, hey let's get our moneys worth, right?

Here's the reason it took longer. You stop and go through a "maze". Or shall I say caution fencing weaving here and there. It was a fun day of celebrating Pumpkin Patching. We made it home in time for the Alabama game, which Matt was most concerned about.
