One tradition we have as a family is going to Bates Nut Farm. It is a pumpkin patch close to here. They have hay rides pulled by a tractor, pony rides, petting zoo, games, the list goes on and on. And they have GREAT food. We always get their corn on the cob! YUM YUM.
Then we go searching for the best pumpkin in their dozens of piles of pumpkins. The tradition continues with a picture of the girls in the middle of the pile. (My favorite!!)

This year was Teagen's first time at a pumpkin patch. (Last year it looked like I was trying to steal a pumpkin under my shirt!!)
Maya took picking out a pumpkin VERY seriously. She checked every pile, I think, to make sure she got the best one! And she even carried it all by herself.
Some times my parents are able to join us. They have been getting a BIG pumpkin for many years now. This year they couldn't make it so we picked out a pumpkin for them. Here are the girls sitting on one of the prospectives!
Teagen even got her own little pumpkin!
After a long day, with not very long naps . . .
. . . we had one crying 
and one dog tired! 
Thought it would have been the other way around, huh!!
