Pretty in Pink at the Pumpkin Patch


And down they go...

Jacob went down the slide about 100 times...and took a few tons of straw home with him in his clothes.

Kaitrin loves, loves, loves the slide!

Jacob's Pumpkin

The "hugest pumpkin ever, in like one hundred years"!

Well, maybe I'll take this other one too...

Pumpkin Pickin'

No Kaitrin, that one is too small!



That's better! Now find Daddy to carry it back to the wagon.
