Today was "Wear Orange to School" Day for Katie, so we figured we would keep the theme going all day with our annual trip to the pumpkin patch. Alas, Daddy had to miss out this year as we could not squeeze it in during the weekend. And, between Katie insisting on pulling the wagon everywhere and Michael trying to escape every chance he could, it will be the last year that Daddy doesn't join us. I put Katie in charge of picking our official family pumpkin, and she found a perfectly plump specimen for tomorrow's carving.
As for Michael, he was enchanted by the Michael-sized pumpkins. These were the only things that could keep him still for a few minutes at a time. Unfortunately, by the end, he discovered that he could actually throw these down pretty hard so we had to bolt before he broke any. (Please, oh please, God - don't let this be a precursor to bad behavior and pumpkin smashing on future Halloweens....)
