Beasley's Orchard

Here are some pics from our trip to Beasley's Orchard. Marcus went with his preschool and took Mom and Dad the following weekend.

One of our favorite parts: The tractor ride to the pumpkin patch.


This one's free. The big ones will cost you.


A lesson on pumpkin patch safety from the orchard owner.


Marcus and his class with their pumpkins. They may as well have been made of gold. He was so excited.

Carving our Pumpkin

Today, we sat outside in 90 degree heat and carved our Fall pumpkin. It doesn't feel like it's time yet, but it's only a few weeks 'til Halloween!!

Dad gets to gut the pumpkin.



About two minutes in, Marcus decides it'll be better if Mom does the carving.



Mom is a regular Picasso with a pumpkin.

Mom, Marcus and Katie with the finished product. Happy Halloween!!
