Blogger is being super duper lame and posting all of my photos sideways today, so hopefully some day I can fix it and make this message absolutely unnecessary.
Yesterday we went to "our" U-Pick Red Barn in Idaho Falls. It's only ours because this has been the third year in a row that we went here to get pumpkins. They always have the best selection and prices on pumpkins in the area. We love it here! They had a little train and hay maze that Brenden had fun with. We came home with 4 large pumpkins, 2 smaller ones for the kiddos, and a tiny white one for $25! Awesome, right.
The best part of the escapade? We were able to go with our friends, Mike and Melanie. We always have such a great time with them and we're lucky to have them live so close. We went with them last year as well and had a blast with them then too! We also stole every single one of these pictures from them. I was silly and forgot our camera at home in all of the excitement.
And then, after pumpkin picking, we went back to Mike and Mel's for dinner and then to our place for some video games, pictionary, and some yummy pumpkin swirl brownies, I'll post the recipe for that too!!
Brenden in his monkey leash! I just love it.
Mike and their wagon of pumpkins. We must just be getting started because I see no pumpkins.
Brenden getting ready to fare the abuse of chickens again.
Ready....
These were some hungry chickens.
Scouting out any food they could find.
Brenden found his first pumpkin.
So cute!
I'm not quite sure this is even a pumpkin, but it sure looks cool.
Aria and I looking for the "perfect" pumpkin.
Brenden out with Chris looking for some pumpkins to take home with us.
Mike found one to take home. Looks pretty good.
Still searching for that "perfect" pumpkin.
Earlier this week, someone had set fire to the straw maze that the owners of the patch had set up. This was going to be their first year doing a straw maze. It was so sad. I hope they catch the guys. What fun suckers!
The fire started on Tuesday night and burned a few days, and is still smoldering and smoking.
This is their second field of pumpkins. This one usually has a better selection because you have to find them yourselves.
I'm not going to say it, but yes, I did marry this.
Now that's a large pumpkin.
And here I am....still looking for that "perfect" pumpkin. Maybe it doesn't exist.
Brenden before he falls out.
Take one: Where Melanie cuts her husbands head off.
Take two: Now that's a keeper!
Brenden shortly after he falls out of the wagon.
And....he's back on the wagon.
I have such a handsome little guy.
Heading back after finding all of our pumpkins.
Time to head into the barn and pay for our lot.
Mike trying to catch a turkey!
And the only bird he could catch.
Time for some family photos.
Mike and Melanie.
Chris catching the best face just at the right time. Haha.
Brenden playing in the pumpkins.
My little cutie.
Our cute little family.
And....Again.
And...Again.
Brenden playing patty cake on a painted pumpkin.
The boys playing in the straw.
Chris and Brenden! I love this one!
And a random camel...at the zoo.
