Our little dude was born shortly after Halloween last year so this year will be his first time celebrating the spooktacular day. We already have the costume ready and the trick-or-treat plans have been made (and will include Grandma from Idaho!). So, of course, we took Gavin to the pumpkin patch for the 1st Annual Carr Family Pumpkin Picking Parade (yeah, I just made that up, so what?!).
After some Internet research we decided to head to Mother Nature’s Farm in Gilbert, AZ.
When we first arrived we picked mommy and daddy pumpkins.
Gavin had a lot of fun playing in the pumpkin patch and really loved the hay! So much that he started to eat it.
At the farm Gavin got to pick a little pumpkin and decorate it. We turned into competitive parents and tried to find all of the best stickers for our little pumpkin head.
After elbowing all of the other parents out of the way we strolled around to look at the animals and took a little hayride.
We had loads of fun at the pumpking patch and are looking forward to carving them up and roasting some pumpkin seeds. YUUUMMM…..
Here’s the slideshow with many more pics of the little guy.
