TMBITT: Punkin Patches

Today I am going to play the "take me back in time Tuesday" that my friend Shalina (http://www.mylifebehindthelens.blogspot.com/) started. This week is Pumpkin Patches Through the Years or as we like to call them Punkin Patches! I didnt pull out and scan all my old punkin patch pictures but I do have 4 years of digital (I love digital!) pictures to share. We're not punkin patch purists. Any patch works for us and most years we have to try out multiple patches. I'm not really sure why since they all have about the same stuff but since the kids love it if we have time we do it. I agree to it because what if there is a cuter photo op at the next patch? You don't want to miss that! So here it is Punkin Patches with my Punkins Through the Years!
2004: This was the year of the multiple punkin patches. It seemed like we were always heading out to find the very best one. We even went to a corn maze! Our first venture was to the church in Downtown Buford that has a patch every year. We had to wait until Daddy came home from work so it was late, but that didn't stop us!

The second patch of 2004 was up to the corner of Hog Mountain Road. Yes, that really is the name of it! Once again at night.
In between these two we did the corn maze, but without any cute punkin pics. This was back again at the church in Buford, but this time we brought friends. The O'Flaherty's were with us and it made for some interesting shots. Two 3 year olds and two 18+ month olds weren't easy to wrangle into picture posing!
2005: They were sooooo little!




2006: This punkin patch trip also included a punkin bouncy house, rabbits and pony rides. It is one of the girls' favorite punkin patches and they want to go back again this year.


2007: This year was a funny year for us. With all that we had going on, I realized on Halloween day that we had never been to a punkin patch!! So, ever resourceful, on the way to my parents' house to Trick-or-Treat we stopped at our favorite patch. Thank goodness there were plenty of punkins left as we jumped out of the car, posed for a few pics and jumped back into the car to fly down to my parents'. The girls thought it was funny that we had to make sure that we had proof that yes, we had been to a patch that year!
