Time for a Trip to the Pumpkin Patch...

It is that time of the year when a trip to the local pumpkin patch is in order.  I remember when most pumpkins available were orange - just plain ole orange.  Then of course there were some "odd" looking squash and gourds.  However, nothing like the variety out there now
 Mom - Got room in the car for this one?
Doubt this character is  much help in  harvesting/farming - as he looks a bit stiff.
Taking a break and playing a game of tic tac toe....
A good excuse for a ride in a wagon.

So adorable! Funny, I don't remember pumpkin patches when I was a kid like they have today! I have fallen in love with heirloom pumpkins, though. Their colors are amazing (pinks, blues..) I'm hoping to pick up some this weekend in Michigan!

Such cute pictures, looks like she's having such a fun time. We never went to a pumpkin patch when I was growing up, but we took the boys every year and made an entire day out of it.

Hubby and I were reminiscing today about the times we've been to a pumpkin farm in the past with the grandchildren. It's fun to see the excitement of the kiddies and many of the places have farm animals for them to pet.

I remember the days of "orange-only" pumpkins, and now, the sky is the limit. Your photos capture the magic of the season. I need to find a pumpkin patch!

Oh such fun colors. My grandkids had fun making scarecrows this year and I got to enjoy all sorts of cool and colorful pumpkins and scarecrows at the nursery when shopping for my senior mom's fall garden. Isn't it fun! :)

We don't have pumpkin patches here in the UK so I love seeing people visit them in the form of blog posts and vlogs on youtube - living vicariously.

Such cute pictures shared... The pumpkin patch seems full of fun autumnal festivities with its cast of 'characters'.

I really, really enjoyed seeing the pumpkins playing chess and hauling that tired child back to the car. What a wonderful post!

Your little red-head looks so adorable sitting on that huge pumpkin! It is true about the variety of pumpkins available now. So many fun new varieties but I have a soft spot for plain orange :)
