The Great Pumpkin Hunt

This past Sunday, Grandma and Grandpa B came up to hunt for pumpkins with us. The weather was absolutely fantastic, compared to the other crummy, cold, wet October days.


Our pumpkin hunting led us to Pahl's Market in Apple Valley. Word had it that pumpkins were both big, small yet very plentiful. In addition to pumpkins, Pahl's had a ton of fun attractions for kids. Too bad Laura wasn't old and/or tall enough to participate. Nevertheless, Laura kept herself entertained by looking around at all the wonderful, colorful things.

After walking around looking at oversized pumpkins, Laura scouted us toward a bin of much smaller ones. She pointed out two small pumpkins for Mom and Dad to carve silly and scary faces for Halloween. We were so impressed with Laura's selections, we forgot that she was a pumpkin hunting rookie. {wink, wink!} Well done, peanut!

We took advantage of the fall scenery at Pahl's and had a family photo of us sitting on a bench. Like I said before, there was so much color and new objects to look at, Laura couldn't help herself and ignored the camera. Oh Laura!
