Pumpkin Patch and Pumpkin Carving

Last weekend we went to a fall festival at a farm/greenhouse to get pumpkins and try a hay ride. We weren't able to get any pumpkins because they were sold out, but we did get to do the hay ride and the kids played in a bounce house.









Later that afternoon, we took the kids to a local church pumpkin patch. They only had larger pumpkins and we spent a fortune on them.

The kids really wanted to carve their pumpkins, but in the end it was just a whole lot of work for Mommy and Daddy. Daddy did most of the scraping and carving, and Mommy did most of the clean up. Liam was afraid of the pumpkin seeds, LOL. He and Bailey designed their own pumpkins and Emily carved a bat by herself!







Fall fun in Florida :)
