The Pumpkin Patch

Yesterday I took Joshua to the "Pumpkin Patch." I say this with quotes because apparently Monday was the last day for this particular pumpkin patch and the pumpkins were then given away for free. So when I showed up on Tuesday with a friend and her baby we saw scattered hay and some picked over, slightly rotten, cracked pumpkins. Well I couldn't let Joshua miss his first opportunity for pumpkin pictures so with the help of my friend, we gathered all the pumpkins that were salvageable (five), rearranged a bale of hay, and were ready to go. As you can see the pictures came out great and next year, I'll go earlier! Joshua is wearing his Halloween costume in some of the pictures. He is the cutest little pumpkin. He wanted to tell his Grandottie "Thanks! You're the best!" for making such a wonderful pumpkin.
Here is Joshua with his little buddy Chet. The challenge here was trying to get a picture where they were both sitting up. Chet would slide left so we'd straighten him up, them Joshua would slide right so we'd straighten him up, and so on and so on. They are some really cute boys. Below are a couple pics of one sleepy pumpkin!
Joshua is showing that even an unhappy pumpkin is still adorable.
