++Pumpkin Patch++

No self-respecting blogger could let the fall pass without posting photos of a trip to the pumpkin patch which, in general, is just one giant photo opportunity since pumpkins are generally cheaper and easier to come by in about 100 other places between our house and the pumpkin patch. But, we are parents now so we do stuff like this. As I feared, it was about 90 degrees on Saturday. I was hoping for sweaters and apple cider...but instead we just got sweaty.

We went to Priddy Farms. Which is basically in the owners' backyard. Suburbs have been built up all around them. It was interesting to see that their four children were all hard at work at the farm...quite different from Wyatt's life (or Mark or mine for that matter).

They had lots of things to play on...this was Wyatt's favorite.
He hopped down into the patch and made a beeline for the lone green pumpkin...that was his choice. I kind of think it's cool that he picked the one that was unique!
Telling mom about his pumpkin.
Showing dad the hay (which he knew was called hay based on a farm book we have).
The family. Notice that Wyatt is wearing that green shirt AGAIN. He has a dresser full of clothes but on the weekends he insists on wearing something that matches Daddy. I should check out Mark's closet before I shop in the future.

Nana is arriving for a quick little visit on Wednesday. She found a ticket for $135!! We realized after the fact that Wyatt and I should have gone to Florida instead. Oh well. Maybe next time we find a ticket for that cheap (ha ha).
