Pick a Pumpkin, Any Pumpkin






Our paper chain told us to go pick pumpkins today.  And it was super uneventful.  No drama what so ever.  Perfect weather, perfect tractor ride, everyone got to sit by who they wanted to, perfect pumpkins, everyone got just what they wanted, even Gavin with his mini pumpkin as he calls it.  And really, perfectly happy kids.  When does that ever happen??  The worst of it all was convincing Sophie that she shouldn't wear her yellow capri's in case they got dirty, that regular blue jeans, or blue jean shorts as it turned out, would be the better pick.  And I got to hear "you were right" out of her mouth when she wiped her muddy hand on her leg and I reminded her that that could have been on her yellow pants...  I win.  And we all won on this perfect fall afternoon.
