I like fall, even though I haven't lived many places that have a real fall - only Utah during college. But I still like going to visit the pumpkin patch in October. Last year we were in Rhode Island in October (they have a real fall!) and we got to go to the
pumpkin patch AND
pick apples. We also
went in Monterey when Matthew was little. Very fun! They don't have anything like a pumpkin patch here, at least as far as I know. Our pumpkins are shipped in from the states. The kids were very excited to see some pumpkins at the commissary (see how excited Matthew is?), so we took a few pictures. Our own little pumpkin patch.
I told them to stand by the pumpkin and look at me. The looking at me part was hard for them.
Anna wanted to stand by the tall scarecrow. There was also a big box of pumpkins, but there were only two moldy ones left inside (that's our commissary) so I didn't want them to pose with those pumpkins.
The kids pretend to pick a few fake apples from the tree (a little decoration for the apple juice display). They were both freaked out that there was a snake on the tree.
And that is the extent of our fall festivities! Pumpkin sitting, apple picking. We covered the bases, right. I think we're going to try and make caramel apples later - using real apples this time. We'll see how that goes. Happy fall everyone!
