Nash's First Trip to the Pumpkin Patch

Last weekend was one of our only weekends in October where we're in town and had no plans...so we prepared all week (i.e. shopped for the cutest fall outfit) for our big pumpkin patch visit over the weekend.  Well, the weather took quite a turn and it was 90 degrees over the weekend...haha.  So much for nice, fall, crisp weather.  Needless to say - no cords, thermals, or long sleeves for our little guy....short sleeves and coveralls were the way to go.  And the farm was selling ice cream instead of cider or hot chocolate.  Oh, the south, how funny you are.

Our pumpkin patch visit was hot - but definitely fun.  The farm was set up like an old western town (complete with pumpkin canon?), so Nash got to see some farm animals, walk through the saloon and post office, and get a chance to hang out in jail.  We go out to the pumpkin patch (a real patch by the way...pick your own pumpkins, your own dirty, scratchy, ouchy pumpkins), and snapped a few pics of Nash in the field before we snatched our orange treasures and hopped back in the AC for the drive home.  We were envisioning the super cute piles of pumpkin pics that all good parents take of their kiddos in the fall.  Umm...maybe later?  When it actually FEELS like fall?  :)

Enjoy!
