Off to the pumpkin patch we go. . . .

We decided to hit up a local pumpkin patch this year to get our pumpkins. We found one in Lehi, not too far from us, that's run in the family's back yard. When we got there Spencer was passed out in his car seat, not good since we wanted him to be a part of the picking process (I think he zonked out because we have been telling him all about the pumpkin patch for the last few days and he was soooooo excited to be going). Once we got him out he was awake, he was not going to miss this adventure. We were greeted by the lady that lives there and she showed us to the back yard where the hunting began for the perfect pumpkin. Here are some moments we were able to capture.

He finally figured it out!

We decided to get three pumpkins after we got there so we had to bring in the wagon to haul off our treasures.

The dirt was way more interesting then looking at the camera.

Spencer felt they he could get a good pair of triangle eyes on his pumpkin so they went for it.

There is something there that he does not like

Taking one last look over the field to make sure we did not miss any good pumpkins.

 Now it's time to get those pumpkins home and carve them up into jack-o-lanterns!
