Swore Farms...
We headed to Swore Farms for pumpkin picking on Saturday. In the past we've always had soccer games on Saturdays so it had been awhile since we'd been. Last time I went was with Walker's Preschool class and Stewart has never been so it was a fun adventure. Of course Walker wanted to lead the way and pull the cart...
Ten minutes later guess who was pulling the cart?...
The place is covered with pumpkins... 8 acres of pumpkins to be exact. I found my pumpkin first...
Good thing I married someone good with tools...
It was a real beauty... loved the shape and color..
We put it in the wagon and looked around more. Ainsley found her's next...
We left her there guarding it so we wouldn't loose it while Stewart got the cart and I went with Little Bug to find his which he was sure was one that we already passed! We went through the tall grass...
and after many, "No that's not it!" we finally found it or one that looked like it.
Then it was Stewart's turn to find his..
As we were heading back to pay for our pumpkins... I'm looking in the cart thinking, "Oh my these are huge... at 25 cents a pound I hope I brought enough cash!" Each pumpkin was around 25 pounds! So with the car over a 100 pounds heavier we headed for home.
We stopped for a bite to eat and I had one of the employees that was cleaning tables take our picture... It was a family outing and I wanted to remember the moment in the years to come. The highschool girl was like, "You want me to take your picture here???" Um Yeah... Sorry it's what I do.
Home to wash up pumpkins..
And take pictures of the kiddos with each of their prized pumpkins...
We put them on the front porch and they barely fit on the steps! Will carve them next weekend!
