Pumpkin Time

The sun was shining right in their eyes as you can see from Taatjes' face^.

The boys had a blast at the orchard we went to for pumpkin picking. Taatjes spent most of his time falling down in the mushy pumpkins and dirt, but, he loved every minute of it. He wanted to put every pumpkin he touched into the wagon. Feeding the goats was a big hit as well. Taatjes found all the corn along the ground to feed to the goats who would have rather eaten his hat. He would turn around to look at us and the goats would begin to nibble on his head. Trey found a pumpkin "just the right size for him" and was very excited to go home and "roast the seeds." He learned about roasting the seeds at preschool. (Which we never ended up doing but did take all the guts out - messy!!!) They have been having a lot of fun this fall with apple picking, pumpkin picking, and leaf pile jumping! They are outdoors boys already...as long as they're bundled up they will play outside for hours.
