Pumpkin Patch!

One of my favorite things to do is visit the pumpkin patch every year. Usually we go to Sauvie Island, but I really wanted to see THE Roloff farm this year. I was disappointed. They didn't have very many pumpkins, there was no hay ride, no warm drinks or elephant ears, and no market place with all the special squashes and corn and other veggies. On top of everything, Ellen still wasn't feeling well after her breathing scare, so she wasn't very excited about the whole thing.

We did find a few great pumpkins (that I hope will provide with millions of seeds for roasting), and the weather was perfect.

The weather DOES look great! And Ellen looks so happy getting to be "in charge" of those pumpkins in the wagon with her :) Glad you managed to find some good pumpkins so you can be appropriately festive for October!!

Ha, I went to a PP on Sat, too, 'round these parts. I was kinda bummed the pumpkins were prepicked, though. I remember getting mine off the vine the last time I went in the late 1980's!

And, uh, breathing scare??? What happened?
