Harvest Time - Harvest Party

Pumpkin and Squash Patch - BEFORE

AFTER - all cleaned up

 

We snipped the pumpkin and squash from the vines, and piled them up.  From the teensy tiny white Baby BOOs..., to the striped Pump - Kemons, to the big orange Howdens.  

Then we pulled up vines and piled them on the tractor tines to take down to the burn pile. 

Then we piled them (pumpkins and kids) on the trailer - we had quite a load !!

Now it was time for chicken noodle soup

Aaron and Kuk

Mom and Dad

Me and LuAnn

We even had a Golden Doodle or two............

I can't say cheese, or Bexlee will close her eyes for the picture, so I said, "say Halloween" - "say Spiders", "say pickles".  Not sure what I asked them to say here, but they sure opened their mouths :)

The kids and adults all picked out what they wanted to decorate their porches, and make their jack-0-lanterns.  

Then there was the requisite GROUP picture, which I'm never in, but that's okay by me :)

Bright and Bex picked the last of the zinnias...........

Kacey grabbed this cute shot of Bex and Grandpa "D"

Click here for short video  - you will notice Tagg at the side, not doing much.  He's holding an ice bag to his poor lip.  He was eating a cheeseburger at Thatcher's football game, and a honey bee wanted some too, and as Tagg went to bite it, the bee stung him right on the LIP !!!  Poor Tagg, he was pretty miserable after that.  

Click here for another short video of Bex and Bright jumping in mud puddles for the rain that came earlier in the day.  I'm so thankful it quit, and didn't ruin our Harvest Party.
