For the past few years sister Kerry and I have been going to the best
little pumpkin patch in Howard County, MD. It's not big and tacky like
others I've been to, rather small and quaint with just a handful of
people picking pumpkins. It's one of my favorite little family
traditions. The farm has a little petting zoo, a hayride, of course,
and a cute little shop which sells local crafts and produce. We lucked
out this past weekend and had amazing weather for our little pumpkin
patch excursion. I'm so happy we were able to fit this in with
everything else we've got going on these days.
We learned that these little flat pumpkins are called cinderella pumpkins and they are extra sweet and often used in pumpkin pies.
And here is my little bounty. I'm actually tempted to go back in a couple of months to cut down our own Christmas tree! Wouldn't that be fun?
Great pictures! It looks like an adorable little pumpkin patch and like you guys had the perfect day for a visit. Let me know if you end up going back to cut down a tree...Greg promised me that we could have a real one this year!
