Pumpkin Time at School

The kids preschool enjoys making pumpkining as I like to call it fun for the kids. Roo's class went on a field trip to Belvedere Plantation to go pumpkin picking and Bug's class did pumpkin picking in the field at the school. Both classes went on a tractor ride at the school as well.

Roo's field trip to Belvedere got cancelled when it was originally schedule be luckily there was enough time left in pumpkin season to go on the field trip the following week. We had a blast on the field trip and spent the rest of the day hanging out with Grandma and Grandpa.

Bug's class picked pumpkins together in the field at school and once I scan the picture, I'll post the picture of him picking his pumpkin. He was really proud and happy and seemed to have a great time with his friends.

The school has pictures of all the kids on the tractor, I'll have to see if I can scan those in as well. All in all though, they're having a great fall and loads of fun at school!

Pumpkining

We went to the pumpkin patch at Westmoreland Berry Farm yesterday.

We got there in the morning so it wasn't crowded yet at all. In fact, we were on the first tractor ride to patch for the day.

Before we went down to the pumpkins Roo and Bug had fun feeding the goat on the airwalk.

The boys ran around and played on the tractor's trailer before going to the pumpkin patch.

It was really windy on the tractor ride and Bug just cuddled in. In fact, I carried him around the patch as we picked out our pumpkins.

After we took the tractor back to the shop we let the boys run around and play for a bit.

I got some fresh brocolli for Roo and he's super excited to eat it. It was nice to get there before the crowds so we didn't have to rush or push through people to do anything. The store smelled like fall so we got a few more apples that I'll make apple pie with, yum!

We all had a really great time and are happy to welcome fall!

A Little Collection

I get updates from a parenting website I visit. Updates for Love Bug are weekly since he's still a baby and Roo's updates are every few weeks. This week's update for Roo talked about collections. Anyone who knows Roo and has seen his bed has seen his collection of cars, trucks, trains and tractors that go to bed with him each day. Here is a quick snapshot of the collection lined up in the kitchen.
