Thought I'd share a few pics of the pumpkin farm! We had a great time - ate too much roasted corn and too many apple cider doughnuts - but we still had fun! You'll notice the pumpkins are not on the vines. Unfortunately, the flooding we had last month impacted the pumpkin crop and these had to be brought in from another location. This is the second year in a row they've had this issue.
We've done this trip for the last 4 years with friends of ours and their son and daughter. The boys are getting to the point where they think they are too old, but they still enjoy themselves, and Cam loves spending time with their daughter (he really is a gentle giant)!

Great pictures, Dana! Loved them all. So sweet Cam as gentle giant. Glad you had fun!
We're going to a pumpkin patch later this month w/ Emma's preschool.
Looks like all had a great time. Great photo`s
A beautiful day for a beautiful family.
It reminds me of the old days when mine were young.
Wow! I’ve never been to a pumpkin farm nor have I been that close to a llama. Thanks for sharing the pics.
This is a great time of the year for getting out and enjoying the beauty that Mother Nature can show us. I think it's great that you do things like visit the Orchards with Cam.
FF, Cam really is an amazing kid (even though I am a bit partial) and has taught me much about unconditional love.
Mike, we really did have a great time!
Richard, it has been unseasonably warm here - not very fall like - but it made for a beautiful backdrop for photos!
Nick, this one happens to be just minutes from our house. Sometimes it's good to live in the country *wink*
Doomed, the colors this time of year are some of my favorite - so warm and rich.
Great pics of Cam. And I must interject. Kale is an under utilized oranmental. Yeah, I said that. Cheers!!
Fall... When the Midwest shows it's Best!
Looks like fun was had. I luv this season! Cute pix. *smiles*

Gorgeous photos. It looks like it was a wonderful day. :)
You know, every time I see an ear of corn, I think of you now... ;)
Harvest time in America!
Love those narly, warty ,gordy pumpkins.
I love Fall! It's my favorite time of the year
I love fall and pumpkins. I just posted about our recent trip to get the season started. Your pics are great.
Matt-Man, you'll be happy to know that I've got some beautiful purple cabbage in my yard!
Buff, the midwest does do fall wonderfully!
I Smile, we had a great time!
Lu, it's a tradition!
Turnbaby, my almost teen got so excited at the prospect of pumpkin hunting and llama feeding. If his friends only knew.
Nicey, as long as no one knows you're having fun, all is well!
That looks like so much fun! I'm taking my girls to the one here tomorrow.
Karen, it was tons of fun!
G-Man, thank you! Coming from you that is quite a compliment!
Biscuit, that's me! Your favorite cob *wink*
Now those are some damn good artistic food photos!! I bet you could submit them to a good stock photo company online, they'd be popular I'm sure of it.
I miss going to the pumpkin farm as a kid.
Micky, aren't gourds the coolest things? I like them much better than pumpkins - far more character!
*sweet*, I find the colors of fall far more inspiring than those of any other season!
Ambergail, I need to go read about your trip!
Bina, have a great time!
Lilly, I'm having a lot of fun with photography these days - trying new things and letting my artistic wings spread a bit.
Great Pics! I miss Pumpkin patch picking....Here in Texas, Pumpkins go bad quick because its so warm.
Great pictures Dana!
Cam's gentleness is outstanding. What a wonderful son you have.
We're going to have a squash today and tonight... TURKEY!
Did you see the Great Pumpkin?
I *love* this! What a great way to spend a day!
Flyinfox, with our highs in the mid 80's yesterday, we are having some of the same challenges!
Anndi, he really is a great kid (if I do say so myself)!
RLL, it really was a great day!
You can say so.. be proud! You did good momma!
One of the reasons fall is my favorite season is because of doing things like this. We are set to go next week with the Chiles school. Great pics of the bounty. I echo Matt-man, that kale is beautiful!
Great pictures! Love looking at them all :)
Pumpkin patches are always fun, no matter how old you are!
Great pictures, Dana!
Great pictures. We love the pumpkin patch. We go at least once in the fall. I took niece and kid Friday. I go back in a couple weeks with niece. Never to old for the pumpkin patch. :)
nice to have traditions every year...some of my favorite memomries are of traditions..even when other parts of our life were not so great...
We missed you this weekend!! I had my very first apple cider doughnuts!! OMG!! I'm soo hooked on them now. Your pics are great...and I agree w/ baseball mom,...one is never too old for the punkin patch!
Apple cider donuts!?!?!? I'm so jealous! Looks like you got a beautiful day!
We just did the very same thing this weekend. Went to a fun spot that we'd never been to before. Good times...good memories.
Mmmmmm. Apple Cider doughnuts. I love fall!
BTW - I just picked up my pumpkin from a roadside stand. 125 pounds! Can't wait to tear in to it!
