We got to Butler's Orchard right when they opened at 10:00 this morning. And, just like the past three years, our first activity of the day was going on a hay-rack ride out to the pumpkin patch.
After the tractor dropped us off at the pumpkin patch, we walked out to a section where there wasn't anyone else around. Julia and Evelyn took their time picking out two perfect pumpkins - one for each of them. Here's Julia, patting her 15-pounder.
After finding their pumpkins, we continued to wander around the pumpkin patch, stopping for photo ops here and there. There were some unusual pumpkins scattered here and there...gray/green pumpkins, bumpy pumpkins, oblong pumpkins and dark green pumpkins.
We were also looking for my perfect pumpkin. This bumpy one fit the bill - not too big but not too small.
And a trip to the pumpkin patch wouldn't be complete without Julia riding in the wheelbarrow. Here she is with both her pumpkin and Evelyn's 17-pound pick.
