Pumpkin Patch 2013

Owen loves the pumpkin patch. As soon as we leave he immediately asks when can we go again, and talks about it all year long. This year I saw that it was going to be a sunny, warm Saturday and I seized the opportunity to take our annual visit to the patch. 

It was a pretty perfect Saturday. The sun was shining. The clouds were minimal. And it was warm, clear morning at the pumpkin patch. We McOmbers set out to find our perfect pumpkin. 

The boys immediately got to business in search of one to take home! 



They loved these small pumpkins... we ended up with a few of those! 


Me with my favorite gal! 


 Venturing out into the patch, er... mud. 


Owen loves to tell this story: Here he is without his shoes! He ended up getting stuck in the mud in the patch. Shad pulled him out, but his shoes stayed in the mud! As you can see below, they got nice and muddy! 




It was such a clear day... this picture doesn't do justice for the beautiful view of Mt. Rainier. 



When did my baby boy get so big!? Look at him, so grown up and handsome!



We found it! The perfect pumpkin!


Owen really wanted to take a picture with this huge pumpkin!


We ended the trip with a tractor hayride! 





We also indulged in some roasted corn. Man, that stuff is delicious! 

We came home with our perfect pumpkin and few small ones to spare. Now Owen is eagerly awaiting us to carve it in to a Jack-o-lantern! And also keeps asking 'When can we go back!?' We love the pumpkin patch!
