Pumpkins and Scarecrows

Thomas, Brenda and I visited a pumpkin patch this week. It was quite fun. Sorry about the orange shirt--what was I thinking--well I was thinking cute, fall colors. I did not think about Thomas blending in so well with all of the pumpkins.

Enjoy!

Here we are at the pumpkin patch.

Thomas and Brenda with another BIG scarecrow. That is one of his favorite things to say--BIG and he says it very loud.

Thomas wanted to take all of these pumpkins home with us but instead chose 5 baby pumpkins (on the hay bale) to go with the 5 he already has at home. He takes them out of the bowl counting as he goes--yes he can count to 5 in Spanish all by himself. He then carries them around to various places in the house. He insisted on falling asleep with one the other night. Next year we are planting our own pumpkins.


We really had a great time. We may take Bob back with us to get BIG pumpkins for our hay ride, wiener roast and pumpkin carving contest. This is the best time of year!!!
