Pumpkin Patch 2011

Boy, was I relieved to find these pictures buried deep in my camera bag. I was so sad thinking I'd lost these pictures! Every year we've lived in VA we've gone to the Ashland Berry Farm for their "pick your own pumpkins", and delicious homemade donuts. :)  I can't believe how much the girls have grown and changed in one little year. The stranger thing is thinking about how this was our last year going to ABF. I find myself wondering what we'll be doing, and where we'll be next year instead of this.  :) Moving on is bitter-sweet, isn't it?

 Capri was more interested in the pumpkins and flowers for purchase than she was in anything in the fields. :)

 This year we let Camri play in the maze, and at the end of it is a bounce house- I'm pretty sure that was her favorite part of the day. 

 Here I am forcing Capri into getting a picture with me

 This is Capri's "attitude" face. While on the hayride out to the field we gave Daddy some "attitude"

 Mommy, forcing Cappi into yet another picture...



 Camri enjoyed picking flowers more than pumpkins this year.


 It was such a nice day out, we all ended up ditching our jackets. Beautiful weather in October- one of the things I'll miss about VA.

 Capri, Capri, Capri. Oh, how she hated the field this year. She kept tripping on the vines, falling in the dirt and crying. She wanted to be held pretty much the whole time we were out. 

 The girls catching a ride in the wheel barrow on the way back from taking our pumpkins to the car

 Oh, they're getting big. Really big. 

 Gross, I know. 

 They had these HUGE pumpkins for sale, I think they were $35. Crazy, right?


 These are the shirts I bought for the girls for Halloween this year. :) Camri loved them.
And of course we all enjoyed the delicious homemade donuts on the way home. Mmmmm.

I don't think anyone enjoyed them more than Capri, though.

So much fun!!! I just love your girls and miss them so much! It's so frustrating when you want to get around and those silly vines get in the way! =-)

I love these pictures- and their shirts (!!). And I can't stand to think that you guys will be gone next year. Even though it'll be good for you to get out of this hell hole.

I can't believe you are getting ready to move again! Where do you guys think you will go? I agree with you I will be sad to leave certain things here that we have made traditions for our little family!
