Simple Things :: An Empty Pumpkin Patch

Sunday, October 28, 2012



A couple of weeks ago now I took the kids to the Pumpkin Patch right after school--  note to self : 
never go again on the weekend if you can help it.
There was only maybe two other families there when we were and it was so nice.
Can you tell I'm not really a crowd kinda person?
It was so empty, in fact,  that I had no problem wollering on my stomach to get some of these pictures.
Had it been crowded I might have been a little too self-conscious for all that.
But this day...perfect weather and perfect light.
Sigh.



I am loving the white pumpkins this year.
And the gray ones... and the warty, bumpy ones.
For some reason it still amazes me that these things all come from a seed, survive the elements,
 the seasons and even a draught and make so many people happy.
Seriously.

Sometimes the littlest, simplest things make me the happiest.
