Chuck and I took our annual, fall drive upstate on Saturday to get pumpkins, apples, cider, mums and pies. We go to the most sincere pumpkin patch...remember Charlie Brown? So sweet and I don't exactly remember when in the last thirteen years, but we started to call each other Chuck & Peppermint Patty. Btw, if you didn't know it already I'm Patty, freckles and all.
It was a gorgeous day. Unseasonably warm and sunny. The children were all so happy and giggling and running around. I'm pretty sure that Halloween and Christmas are pretty close competitors for the best times in a child's life - well mine anyway. I loved these holidays the best. Lately though, I'm leaning toward Halloween being the best. Christmas is not the same anymore. Just like our government - but that's a WHOLE 'nother story. : )
Then we went through the corn maze (no, not another government reference)...I've never done that before. Kinda scary and fun all at the same time. I definitely wouldn't run through there at night though. Wayyyy too chicken.
After all that fun, we worked up a serious appetite and went for a couple of steaks. Overall a really great day. Then home for, you guessed it, PIES!
This is Chuck sucking on some Halloween candy,
leading the way - to a - dead end??? : ) Yeah.
That happened a lot in the maze - but - typically
it takes between 8 and 20 minutes to get through-
we did it in 7 - so there!

Ah yes. The 'most sincere' pumpkin patch. Poor little Linus and his faith in a thing that never did show up. His sincerity and faith were sweet nonetheless. Love the pics!! Hope you make some punkle pie or somethin'!
