Going to the pumpkin patch is my favorite Halloween tradition. When I was a kid we just went to the grocery store. So boring! It is much more fun to trudge through a dirty field to find just the right pumpkin! Ben has been begging to go for weeks.
The highlight of the pumpkin patch for Cole was the goat. I don't get what it is with him and goats but he loves them. He sees them and just laughs and laughs and laughs.
Neither of the boys were in particularly cooperating moods for pictures. Ben just wanted to pick every single pumpkin and take them all home with us and Cole just wanted to crawl in the dirt.
Ben really really wanted to pull the wheelbarrow. The problem was that it was WAY to heavy for him.
Cole liked the view from inside the wheelbarrow. And it kept him out of the dirt.
He loved using the big while pumpkins for drums.
Ben's one and only smile came when he got to go on the tractor ride. It was really bumpy, but both boys loved it.
Ben couldn't wait to get home with our pumpkins and "sword" them. Apparently, that means "carve" them.
Love you guys!! Best family tradition ever! Miss you! Give those boys a hug and a kiss!
