A Visit to the Pumpkin Patch!

October 5th, 2007

Today we did one of our favorite fall activities: picking out a pumpkin! We all had a great time this year at the Schultz Farm down in the Orting Valley, going through corn mazes, feeding the animals, playing in the giant wood chip pile, and finding the perfect pumpkin. We got over 100 pictures from our time at the farm… here are just a few of the many, many great shots we got!

Along with 8 ears of sweet corn and a mini-pumpkin that Patrick picked out, we head for home after another wonderful year at the pumpkin patch
