Pumpkin Picking

A local farm had a pumpkin picking event. I took the kids and Emma got to pick out pumpkin from the pumpkin patch. Did you know the pumpkin vines have itty bitty sharp little stickers on them? Well, take my word on it. Anyways, we also got to ride on the trailer pulled by the tractor. I think that was Emma's favorite part, we rode the tractor 3 times, and we probably would have done it more if I would have let her. It was fun. I love doing fun things like this. I hope Emma looks back one day and remembers how much fun we had.

This is the pumpkin we picked, pretty huh?
Look, a grey pumpkin, isn't that unusual?

Family picture (Wow, I look tired, oh yeah, I forgot we had spent about 4 hours at the park that morning with some friends)
We also got some yummy delicious hot chocolate, see our chocolate mustaches?
Tractor ride

Fresh Okra. It was a little late in the season so it was borderline edible but Emma liked it. I didn't know it grew on long stems.

Jackson had fun too!
