Pumpkins R Us

We've been getting our fill of pumpkins around here! This weekend the boys and I headed up to the lakehouse while Mike headed to KC for a wedding. My parents and Josh and Tia went with us to the local pumpkin patch. Fun was had by all :)We have a picture of Noah and Bampa by this same pumpkin from 2 and 3 years ago, so fun to add to the memories with Sammy now!
You really notice the hair color difference when they are outside. The wagon ride lasted about 2 minutes, but it was still pretty cute.
They had a large pumpkin hallowed out for little people to pose in. Sammy thought he was hilarious and kept chuckling at himself.
Noah looks just THRILLED doesn't he. He was a bit tired of the posing at this point.
My lil pumpkin! Cuter than the rest, I think.
Bamma, whatever you do, don't let go of me!
Noah went on a pony ride with Bampa's help. After climbing off he told the local horse wrangler, "that was SO cool!"
Uncle Josh feeds the monster. I swear this kid will eat ALL day long despite his little peanut size.
Beautiful day with my boys! Nothing can be better!
Back at the house, Uncle Josh gets down to business...
Waiting for the big guts reveal with Tia... the anticipation builds...
Ewwwwwww!
Meanwhile, Sir Crankypants took up residence in the Baby Bjorn. How ridiculous is it that he still fits in it at 15 months?
The only artistic one present was Tia (otherwise it would have ended up with basic geometric shapes for eye/mouth) and she free handed this spooky masterpiece after a picture Noah and Josh found online.
Finished product with candle included...
Then we came back home for Pumpkins Part II with Daddy. You may remember his awesome Captain America from last year. Noah perused several super complicated designs online.
But then they came upon a classic. thunder, Thunder, THUNDER, THUNDERCATS, HOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO!
Pretty cool, eh?
So this afternoon Noah and I put out the pumpkin spread. Now to survive our first preschool Halloween party on Thursday! Happy Halloween!
