Pumpkins and the peacock feather......


We headed down to Valley Center to visit Bates Nut Farm once again this year to get our Pumpkins! Here are a couple pictures from when Paige was almost 2 (3 years ago)-some of my favorites :)

This one got 1st place in their photo contest that year!!

Once again I got my "fix" seeing the piles of ORANGE pumpkins!











The fam.

The picked our WINNERS.

We didnt go for the 80 pounder this year.... :(


Eat the GOURD....................



This just makes me laugh.


Takin a rest with Great Grandpa.....they are too cute together.




Then Paige spotted this PEACOCK.

She has recently become obsessed with peacocks.

I dont know where it came from. She is going to be a peacock for halloween so this was her dream come true to see one in real life.

The only thing BETTER was that she found one of the peacock FEATHERS on the ground and it was almost better than a day at DISNEYLAND for her!



Then after that EVERY picture we took was a POSE with the Peacock feather.

Its her new BFF.





We found the massive pumpkins and had fun climbing all over them.

Isnt she pretty mom?!

Are those not the best colors in the world?! :)
Nap time.


Now its time to watch ITS THE GREAT PUMPKIN CHARLIE BROWN and burn some yummy candles.

I LOVE THIS TIME OF YEAR.
