Pumpkin Patch Field Trip

Haley and Lauren helping Uncle Tren roll Dennis's pumpkin to the porch.

Uncle Tren needs two helpers with this huge pumpkin!


The girls decided that the pumpkin needed a bath.

The planting of the broccoli seedlings.


All of the children with their pumpkins.


MMMMM, this is a good sandwich.

The girls went on a field trip with their daycare to a local farm with a pumpkin patch. My mom and brother, Trenton, came down from Sacramento to go on the field trip with them. My mom said that the girls had a great time. It would have been perfect if it hadn't been so windy today. According to mom, everything was well planned for the children. They planted broccoli, took a tour of the bakery (and tasted treats), saw a haunted house, and picked out their very own pumpkins. I was quite surprised by the pumpkin that was chosen for Dennis. His pumpkin was too big to fit in the house! Mom and Tren came home with lots of tasty treats including a strawberry pie. Haley said that she had a great day, but she was afraid of the skeleton in the haunted house.
