Pumpkin Picking Pictures!

Today was a bit of a day! It's only 3:30 and I'm ready for it to be over! We started the morning with flu shots for Tater, Mommy, and Daddy. Tater's ear-piercing screech was probably heard on the other side of the country! She does not do needles very well!

Then we went to Kids' Club (Sunday School with a fancy name!), where Bruiser got told he wasn't quite ready...a nice way of kicking him out! But more on that another time...maybe.

Then, we ventured over the bridge, down the highway, and into the country to find some pumpkins! We started with a tractor-pulled wagon ride - no hay, perfect for the allergy prone Sprouts!

Then we went search of the perfect Jack-O-Lantern pumpkin, which Daddy got the honor of carrying for the next half hour - all 20 pounds of it!

(Yes, Mommy made the blog today!)

Tater found a pumpkin blossom.

Tried for the picture-perfect fall photo but Bruiser doesn't act on command very well!

Better picture, minus the unknown child in the background - need to explore the wonders of Photo-Shop!

Bruiser spent the ride back from the field looking through the wagon slats at the tractor. He's all boy!

We ended the day with a mini-train ride ("All aboard!) and some yummy fresh-made french fries and corn-on-the-cob!

Now the exhaustion has hit - me at least! Bruiser napped (passed out!) in the car on the way home and is now upstairs calling for me because he has decided nap time is over. Not according to my schedule! Hopefully he'll entertain himself with his trains and give me a few more minutes of piece!

The good news is that I have tomorrow off and we have a play date planned! Entertainment for the kids and for Mommy!
