Everybody's Doing It
We’ve seen them everywhere.
From Facebook postings to blog posts…
Pictures and stories
of…
THE PUMPKIN PATCH
♬ dum dum dum… ♬
Herefollows my very own obligatory pumpkin patch post. Because I’m a mom. And a blogger. This is what we do. We share, we show-off…
—–
Everyone had so much fun. *clears throat*
Everyone had fun.
Kill joys.
We saw pumpkins.
Uh…
We saw PUMPKINS…
That was good times.
I loved capturing my husband in a natural environment…Nothing like a *candid*.
Can you feel the good times?
Warms a mother’s heart.
I had such a great time with my happy children. There was much rejoicing after we found our way out of the corn maze… All of us. So happy. Happy, happy family here…
PHOTO BOMB!!!
Oh sisters…
MOST of the pictures… I am not allowed to post. My older two are crampin’ my style. They keep asking, “You’re not going to blog that are you?” And I tell them -
“QUIT RUINING MY LIFE!!!”
“ARE YOU OUT OF YOUR MIND, I’M NOT GOING TO POST A PICTURE OF YOUR HAND OVER YOUR FACE!!!”
“Of course not…”
In conclusion, the final 2 pictures of the 3 who actually had fun…
or at least those who knew how to fake it for posterity’s sake…
Nothing like family time.

Keep up on the ridiculous, the insightful, the always digressive…

Loved this post for it’s REAL NESS!!
Too funny! What’s wrong with these kids?? Don’t they know we need material to blog about which requires them having fun at the Pumpkin Patch?? lol
@chantelle & @stacey… bribery didn’t even work. The teen years just might kill me…
Every fall, I start to shake and get a little scared. I think it’s just because of all the Halloween decorations, the horror movies on TV, the impending arrival of Christmas breathing down our backs, but no….it’s the memory of the last time we went to a pumpkin patch as a family! I have many, many photos similar to these up here! Sadly, I didn’t even bring up the idea of going to one this year, thanks to those memories AND the charm of one 13 year old boy in my house now. Good times. Good, good times.
Moment of complete honesty. I’m usually the grinch at all these silly money sucking events. I absolutely Loathe them all. I keep trying to suck the excitement and enthusiasm about these pumpkin patches and Christmas tree farms out of my kids, but they insist on jumping for joy at the mere mention of it. Every year I say we are boycotting, but they just won’t go along. Can we trade kids for pumpkin patch day next year?
I am thinking that this is one of the funniest blogs. I so get you.
<3 the squashed pumpkin and the smiling couple — you don't look much older than when we last visited (your son was under 3 years old).
L.O.V.E. Liv’s face. That is exactly what I looked like on both field trips to the pumpkin patch. Such an awesome mom am I.
I can now admit my older child (who I will not name here) actually cried- CRIED- after going to the patch. Good times indeed.
You tell those kids they should be GRATEFUL they have a pumpkin patch.
And Halloween.
No pumpkin patches in Wales, baby, at least none that we’ve found.
Halloween was a bomb. They don’t know how to do it right, and the candy sucks (what little they have).
Forget about the starving kids in Africa – THERE IS NO REESES OR HERSHEYS IN THE UK *pulls hair, wailing*
