Here is the pumpkin patch!!! We found a great place called Hall's Pumpkin Farm. It has a corn maze, hay rides, old tractors and trucks for great photo ops, as well as lots of pumpkins of course! We spent the mid day there, which was way too hot! It was about 90 degrees with no shade and no wind. The dust was in full swing! With it being hot, we all became cranky pretty quickly! I'm certain the children thought I was torturing them by making them pose for pictures. You can tell in some shots that they were not quite enthusiastic. In fact, I tried to get a shot on the tractor and they just started hitting each other, because they both wanted to control the steering wheel! I hope to go again in the early evening when the weather is more pleasant, and I imagine all the lights will make a cool glow on the orange pumpkins and hay. Hopefully this ambiance will make a more pleasant picture taking experience too!
