September: Picking Pumpkins at Nana's

Most families run to Albertson's to get their annual carving pumpkins, or make a special trip to a farm hosting a harvest festival and pick one out of the pumpkin patch.


Not us, we just go to Nana's house and get to pick from a couple dozen pumpkins.


The kids love this annual tradition and so does Nana.



Lizzy wanted a big one. Her dad told her whatever size she wanted she had to carry to the car, hence the medium size pumpkin.


Ethan found 3 he wanted, and carried to the car.


Sophie was picky and looked for just the "right" one.


Which apparently was a little green.


Andrew wanted a white pumpkin which Nana had planted this year. So he found one that was just perfect. What a wonderful experience.
