Pumpkin Patch

Grace, Dad, Mom, Grandpa Wade and Grandma Diana all went to Pierce's Pumpkin Patch tonight. Grace was so excited it was all she talked about all day and on the way there. We went through the Hay Bale Maze that featured two turkeys, some very small donkeys, and one chicken. They had their big "festival" a couple weekends ago but we couldn't make it. Grace picked out her itty bitty pumpkin first and then picked out the big one she has on her shoulder for her dad.

We got home and set to work carving them. At first she was very timid about "gutting" them. After mean ol' Mom put some "guts" on her hand she wasn't to worried about it.

And then only about a half hour after being gutted, carved, photographed and placed in the front window. Poor Dad's pumpkin could not live with the ugly face it was given and took a backwards header off the tv tray it was placed on. Rest In "Pieces" Ugly Pumpkin.
