Benjamin's First Pumpkin

Saturday we took a trip up into Indiana to Huber's Family Farm where Benjamin got his first pumpkin!

We took a picnic lunch and ate by a little lake. Benjamin loved watching the ducks play in the water. He even shared his peas with them. When we finished lunch we got on a trailer pulled by a big tractor, which took us to the pumpkin patch. We looked around for the perfect "Benjamin-sized" pumpkin, but couldn't find any small ones. He had a good time climbing around amongst the pumkins, though. We took the ride back to the market and finally found the little ones in a bin outside.

On the way home we stopped by another little family market and picked out (less pricey) pumpkins for the rest of the family. Seth got a taller, skinny one; Kiersten got a really round one:); and we even got a little teeny tiny baby pumkin for Baby Girl. We'll wait to post the pictures of our "pumpkin family" until we get them carved!
