Erik and me and our little nugget went to the pumpkin patch on Saturday. It was lots of fun I was smiling the whole time I don't know why it just hit the spot for a fun fall activity. We first went to Davis Family Farms here in Corvallis they had donuts and hot chocolate and a hay ride out to their pumpkin patch to pick pumpkins. HOWEVER, their pumpkins were .25 cents a pound which I think is a bit much so we instead rode the little hayride out to the patch and rode it right back in while we munched on our donuts but it was lots of fun.
The trailer was pulled by this big huge tractor. The driver would let kids come up and help him drive the tractor around which I thought was pretty cute the kids were loving it.
This was the pumpkin patch we ended up going to. It was awesome it's a place called Twedt's off of highway 20. We have come here a few times for produce at different times of the summer they have very good products and at a very reasonable price. This u-pick patch was only .10 cents a pound so I think we did WAY better and we had the pick of the patch and got all of these pumpkins and some gourds for 5 bucks.
Us chilling at the pumpkin patch. Can I just say how much I love this man? He is my favorite, he takes such good care of us and our little family.
Erik carving his K-Bar contest pumpkin. This knife brand company K-Bar was having a pumpkin carving contest on Facebook that they had people carve pumpkins with their K-Bar knives and then post them and the best one wins a free K-Bar knife so Erik went all out with his zombie pumpkin. Hopefully they will announce the winner tomorrow or Friday keeping our fingers crossed that he wins!
This is the knife that I He-manned apart while trying to carve my pumpkin. Oops! Who knew pregnancy would give me all of this extra strength to break knives in half? haha
Erik's zombie pumpkin complete. It is pretty gruesome I must say, I hope he wins!
All of our pumpkins! I thought mine needed to be a bit more happy to contrast Erik's scary pumpkin. I think we did pretty good.
Our mason jar pumpkins all lit up. I like them I think they turned out pretty cute.
Delicious pumpkin seeds! This is one of my favorite Halloween treats! Yum Yum Yum!
I came home the other night and this tree was on fire it was so bright with the evening sun coming down on it it was beautiful I wish the picture could give it justice. We have had such beautiful colors here fall is wonderful. One thing I like about Oregon is that these colors stick around for weeks in Utah I swear there was like a week where they would be really pretty and then it would freeze and all the leaves would fall. These bright beautiful colors stick around all of October and then some.
Oh yeah one last thing. Happy 14 weeks! I think I'm finally getting a noticeable belly. I have a Dr. appointment tomorrow and hopefully they will talk to us about setting up our appointment for our anatomy ultrasound to find out the gender in 6 weeks. We can't wait!
