Pumpkins!

On Saturday Sam and I went to the Jefferson Pumpkin patch south of Salem to pick out pumpkins. Dave went golfing with one of his friends so we went with my sister in law Kristin and her kids.

We had a good time and the weather was very nice. Oregon in the Fall is very pretty. Since there are so many trees you see a lot of different colors. Poor Samantha had a bit of a rough time. Within the first few minutes we were there, she fell on her face and was bleeding everywhere and got a huge fat lip. Poor kid. She's tough though. After like 2 minutes she stopped crying and was fine. I would try to take her picture and she would smile and there would be blood all over her lips and in her mouth! And earlier on this week she fell and hit her lower lip on the edge of a table and was bleeding so she was just evening things up I guess with hitting her upper lip. Now she just has a couple of scraps on her upper lip.

All the pumpkins were only a dollar so we got one for each of us. We were hoping they might have some white pumpkins but if they did they were all snatched up. So now we have pumpkins I just have to figure out what to dress Sam up for Halloween!

Aw, poor Sam! But that's what happens when you're that age and wandering around on two unsteady feet at times.
That pumpkin patch looks like a lot of fun. Caden and I are going to get our pumpkins tomorrow, I think. If not then, definitely by Friday.

Hi! SO CUTE! I Love the picture of you and Sam. You look beautiful! Thanks for taking the time to get together with us while we were in Portland. It was really fun. It helped add some fun to the stress of the trip. You are such an adorable family and we enjoyed your company! I hope we can get together again soon. Anyway, Have fun with your pumpkins! TTFN

That sounds like so much fun to take Sam to a pumpkin patch. All your pictures are so cute! You are such a good mom. I am going to have to take some lessons from you on motherhood. It's weird to think that I will be a mom too in less than 5 months!!! Crazy!

That picture of you and Sam is so cute! I have to say, she is looking more and more like you. You know what they say about people who spend a lot of time together--they start looking alike? Or it might have something to do with genetics, I don't know.
