I'll wait here Mom, you go get the car.

What a wonderful day we had at the pumpkin patch.

It was Abigail's first visit to a pumpkin patch and Black Creek Farm couldn't have been more perfect. My mom and I just happened to stumble upon it while driving back to their property from shopping around downtown Decatur. It was so picturesque. Lots of pumpkin patches, big and small. A hayride with the most wonderful country views. A petting zoo (that was actually clean) with baby goats and baby chicks. Vintage wagons. And the most creative playground I've seen. The actual pumpkins themselves were even amazing, far better than what you can buy in the city. I just love having these pumpkins on my front porch. It was such a lovely afternoon, I can't wait until next year - a new tradition has been created.
