4th Annual Murphy Pumpkin Pick

Given the choice between a flashlight hike, pumpkin picking or a movie, Ian picked pumpkins. We decided to try going in the evening this year (normally we go in the afternoon or late morning). The good: No crowds and no waiting. The bad: The light was not the best for photos as it became dusk. Either that, or I cannot figure out my camera settings for this yet. The boys went on the tractor first and probably could have played on that tractor for the rest of the evening.

Ian was the driver, of course. Connor decided to climb and put his head through the steering wheel openings. I had visions of all those kids in school who get stuck with their heads in the back of the chair openings, but Connor had it all figured out.

I am not sure what the appeal about placing your head in the picture of an animal is really about. These painted boards are propped at zoos, farms, etc and they just don't seem very cute to me. But, my boys ARE cute so I just cropped out the animal pictures. More to come...
