Another lovely fall day, so warm that if it weren't for the changing leaves we might be fooled into believing that it's May instead of October. We headed to the pumpkin patch today.
So many pumpkins to choose from. After a bumpy tractor ride, the lovely ladies and fine young gents each chose a carving pumpkin from the field. So much more satisfying than standing in the grocery store parking lot. Choosing a giant pumpkin from our own garden might be even more satisfying, but I haven't got a tractor, wagon, or bales of hay for seats, so who knows?
Feeding the goats is always a highlight. For most of us. Lovely lady, 11, has a senstive smeller, so she stays far far away.
When we got home we went for a leaf walk around the neighborhood. We have so many lovely trees. The ladies and gents were oooohing and aaaahing over the color and variety.
"Look, Mom, look at this one!"
"I found an acorn!"
"Look what's inside here!"
"Are these seeds?"
We had a nice time just meandering along, enjoying one our own company. I have great kids.

I am wondering why you did not mention the lovely young lady and the 2 fair gentlemen that accompanied you to the Pumpkin Patch -- let alone their fair Mother.
We had fun too -- thanks for inviting us !!!!!
