My mom mentioned that they wanted to pick a time to have us come out to the Ranch to pick out pumpkins. I am so glad she did, I wasn't even thinking about getting pumpkins. It is nice to have your own personal pumpkin patch, especially when you are just barely venturing out with a newborn.
Last Monday we headed over to my parents house to pick out pumpkins for Family Night. Allyson was so excited to pick out pumpkins, Eva was just excited to be at Grandma and Papa's house.
It had rained earlier that day but the rain stopped in plenty of time for us to head out to the garden.
The girls had fun finding pumpkins hidden in the garden, there were a lot of them!
Ally found hers pretty quickly, she wanted a big one. Since we brought the pumpkins home she decided she liked mine better and we have switched.
Eva found one that was just perfect for her to carry around. She was getting a bit grumpy, she was ready for dinner.
The girls with the load of pumpkins they picked for my parents as well as for us.
Ally got a ride back up to the house while Eva walked up with Daddy.
Pumpkin carving was a bit hard this year, we had to squeeze it in between school, work, dinner, feeding a baby and baths. But pumpkins were carved. Ally wanted a scary pumpkin, and she got one! I helped her look for ideas on Pinterest, while she did want scary she had her limits. She told me :I want scary but not that scary" to one of my suggestions (it wasn't really that scary). She carved the pumpkin herself (with some guidance from daddy)
