pumpkin patch

we took boden for his first trip to the pumpkin patch yesterday. it was lots of fun. he liked the pumpkins and the farm animals, but mostly i think he really enjoyed the dirt and rocks. he loves getting dirty - i guess it's my fault that i dressed a 15 month old boy in khaki pants to go to the pumpkin farm. who does that? :) we eventually found the perfect pumpkin. I think I'm the only one who is excited about getting it home to carve it - I love roasted pumpkin seeds! maybe i'll attempt a 'real' pumkin pie too. we also got some yummy homegrown veggies at their farmer's market. we ate them for dinner last night and they were so good....i'm thinking about going back for more.

(yes, as usual, i took entirely too many pictures...at least the grandparents will appreciate it :)

You bet we DO! Just wish I had better eyesight to see them- they're so tiny! We'll have to get some copies from you. He's growing & changing sooo much! Can't wait to see you at the end of the month.

Yea for Thies Farm! Boden looks adorable. And I totally would have done the khaki pant thing...you want your kids to coordinate with the surroundings they will be photographed in, right? Ha ha :)

You keep taking all those pictures because we really enjoy them. He is growing up way too fast are I'm getting older and time is going by faster. We love the pictures. I check every day for a update.
