A Good Day...

I just wanted to post some quick pictures from our pumpkin picking excursion today. My friend Connie told us about a pumpkin patch in Cortland by her house. She said that the lady who grows the pumpkin had all kinds of pumpkins and warty ones too! Anyone who knows me should know that I am a big Martha Stewart fan. A few years ago Martha proclaimed her love for warty and nubbly pumpkins so of course I love them too!

There were so many varieties and sizes of pumpkins to choose from.

Here was the largest field of pumpkins, but don't be fooled they had hundreds more.

We were provided with a wagon to collect pumpkins with. Here is the gang.

Brian was assigned to wagon pulling and pumpkin heaving.

Now these are the kind of pumpkins that I was interested in.

My mom walked the rows looking for the perfect pumpkin.

This monster pumpkin was only 7 dollars!

I told my mom that I was going to buy a warty pumpkin and she said NOOOOOO. She said she would not come out of her room if it was in the house or she would put a handkerchief over it when we were not home so she would not have to see it. I took a picture to remind her of it!

Here are all of the pumpkins we chose, THEY ARE ADDICTING! Fellow blogger and friend Bridgette said today, "I need more pumkins!!"

I had such a nice time today, I hope everyone else did too!

How fun, I love the warty and odd looking pumpkins, too. We actually plan on going to a pumpkin farm today to get ours. It's looking a little cloudy outside, so I'm keeping my fingers crossed and hope it stays dry.
