Pumpkin Patch

The same farm that we visit to pick strawberries also has a pumpkin patch in the Fall. We went last year and Ava had so much fun on the hayride and picking out the biggest pumpkin she could carry. This year was just as much fun and Ava went for unique instead of size. She picked out some fun gords and a white pumpkin. She told us that the little yellow gord was shaped like an octagon because it has lots arms like an octopus...hmm. Oliver spent most of the morning in our arms as his stroller was invaded by fire ants while we were on the hayride. The Texas hill country was beautiful and it almost felt like Fall even though it was 90 degrees...but then that's Fall in Texas. Here are some pictures from our fun morning. (I am having fun using a new collage format Ava's preschool teacher uses on her class blog--click on the pictures to enlarge them)

This is such a cute collage! You'll have to show me how to do this.

The family picture is great - I'm glad that Oliver didn't get eaten by the fire ants!
