The Pumpkin Patch

Tonight, we decided to pick up Troy early from daycare and take him to a pumpkin patch. He’s never been before, and we thought he’d love to see all the different sizes and shapes, and to pick out his very own pumpkin to decorate. What we didn’t count on was that he’d want more than one pumpkin…more like five of them and six different gourds! But it’s really hard to tell him no when he’s being so good, and he has that cute little look on his face…that innocent, childlike wonderment. So, now we have a boatload of pumpkins and gourds sitting in our house waiting for adornment.
