A Trip To The Pumpkin Patch

 Year Two at The Dewberry Farm!* 
*The Dewberry Farm does not contain a single dewberry*

Many of us will, quite literally, look back on this blogging thing and either think, 'I'm sure glad that I wrote on that picture or I would have forgotten about that day.'  or 'Wow, what a waste of so many hours of my life!'  :) I think Tatum and Tanner will look back on these many posts as well and get to see their lives' happenings before their memories even started recording. So, we just wanted to say, thanks for joining us. Your comments will be fun for them to read some day.

"This was from back in the early 2000's when the farmer, who knew way too much about gourds, would give us a hay ride to the pumpkin patch to pick the pumpkin of our choice." 

 
Tatum and Tanner quickly found the perfect pumpkin.

...Well, maybe this one is a little too...um, orange."Hah! You just can't pick it up can you? I can pick it up with one hand."
"But to be safe, I better use both hands."
"...You're right, I think it's a little too um...orange."


Perfect!
Oh yes, perfect!
Now that the twins had secured the perfect pumpkins, we decided to go check out the livestock.
"On your marks, get set, Go!"
And their off! The pink one won.

 
The pink one won


Tanner loved the goats and would run up and down the fence to pet them. As if overalls weren't enough, he figured he should look the part a little better and loose the shirt.
Tatum was no less impressed with the goats.
Tanner spent the whole 20 or 30 minutes in the playground area on this John Deer Tri-cycle.


Tatum...on this chain bridge. She is fearless and would run back and forth over and over again.
and again
and again!

We had so much fun, especially since they charge for pumpkins by the pound! Don't worry we also got a big pumpkin for carving. 
Mommy smuggled it out under her shirt.

Ok so does Tanner want a goat or a John Deer for Christmas. If you get two goats that will make them both happy. Troy remember the goats from the deer lease?

Love you all,
Grandma Lori
