Pumpkin Patch in Photos

Dallas has a very cool Arboretum and Botanical Garden, and in the fall they go ALL OUT with pumpkins. Its such nice weather in Texas (which one cannot say very much!) so it is a perfect excuse to go play in the pumpkins and enjoy the beauty!

They even have a maze for kids made of hay, and thousands of pumpkins.


Everywhere. Pumpkins. HOUSES made of pumpkins. Rainbows of colors of pumpkins.


Of course, this is a great photo opp...if the 3 year old will play along.

We convinced my son to smile in other pictures by promising we would do a scary monster picture at the end.
I don't want to brag, but I think I am the most convincing scary monster!  At least I am committed to the role enough to include a hand motion.


This is a skill I am sure I will be able to use often in life.


LOVE the pumpkin houses. So cool.

We went with my husband's twin brother and his family... the cousins love to play together!


Of course, getting a picture of TWO three year olds is no easy task....
(and we're back to the monster face...!)

We laughed at the twins because they wore matching shirts. Not on purpose, but I am sure their "Twin Powers" went off when they were getting ready in the morning.

Joel, my husband, is in the glasses...just in case you are confused!

What is your favorite place to play in the pumpkins?

Hi! I am not sure if you remember me or not, but you drew our family for us (it is actually my little blog icon now!) and I keep up with your blog!
Really random, but I was just uploading my son's preschool pumpkin patch pictures and I think your son may be in my son's class! I saw you in the background of a few pictures and thought to myself "She looks so familiar!" Then I realized that I think it is you!
If so, my son is Jackson! He was dressed like Woody from Toy Story!
