Pumpkin Patch time.

We went to our local pumpkin patch this week and let the girls pick out their own pumpkins. 

Marisa searched and searched for the perfect one.


Megan picked up a lot of rocks and didn't care too much about the pumpkins.  


Megan and her dada...


Megan's pumpkin:


We finally narrowed it down to these four pumpkins.


and Marisa got a ride back to buy them...


It took some convincing but I finally got Marisa to sit in the tractor.  Megan wouldn't even go near it which was pretty surprising to us.  She's usually the dare devil in the family. 


My cute girls.


Marisa loved pushing around her little wheelbarrow.


They had a children's corn maze too.  Marisa led us all the way through it!  She did great considering most of the turns only had one way to go :)


When we got home we started the carving.  We baked the pumpkin seeds and Marisa kept telling me they tasted like popcorn.  I have been surprised by how much she is loving Halloween this year.  And we haven't even been trick or treating yet!

The final product:
