Our Pumpkin Adventure

WARNING. . . this pumpkin adventure isn't for the faint hearted. Or the people with lack of imagination. . . READ AT YOUR OWN RISK. . .Enjoy. . .

So on sat. the 16th we went to Tanaka Farms to go pick out our pumpkins like we do every year. .

We got to walk around all over the fields dig through plants to try to find the perfect pumpkin. 

It was a sort of a gloomy day cool weather but all around fun. . . Perfect day to go home and snuggle up with a cup of hot chocolate. . . but we didn't do that last part, gotta have the hot coco mix first. . .

But. . . this was our day first we get there looking around. . . And I am some how reminded of the Halloween special of charlie brown. . . the great pumpkin.

So once we got there there were soooo many pumpkins to choose from but which one? But Hannah had found one she like right away. . .

                  but Hannah wanted a white one also. . .

Luckily for mom there was only one white pumpkin in the whole patch. . . So it was an easy choice for her. . .



We also went to pick veggies fresh from the dirt I had to be careful cause one too many people ask me if I work there hmmmm. . . let me see do I look like i work there. . .

 I must be wearing a bright orange shirt that says, "Tanaka Farms" Yup. that's what it was. .

Hannah was having so much fun we had to take a break.  She decided she wanted to climb up bails of hay. . .



So she was so excited she threw handfuls of hay up in the air. . .



So the haunt cont. . . to find the perfect pumpkin. . . We then cont. to search through the pumpkin forest,

searching and searching. . .

 and searching some more. . . . .

Then we found it. . . we found two of them. . .

Now since we found the pumpkins in the pumpkin forest it was time to climb out. . .

So Hannah got out. . . but apparently I was still lost. . .but where was I?

 I'm some where lost in the pumpkin forest. . . but where?
Ahhh found at last. . .

So after a long grueling road, we've emerged victorious on our quest for the perfect pumpkin. . .

we've found many bizarre friends along the way. . .

Sir Straw B. Erry. . .

Lady E. G. G. Plant. . &  Mr. C. E. Lery. . .

The Guardian. . . the workers. . . & the friendly guide. . .

To reach the end of our adventure we had to cross the treacherous close line bridge. . .

& climb the forbidden stairs.
 

To finally reach the Pile of Pumpkins. . .

Just to make our way to the gated guardians whom we had to feed the minions. . .before . . .

Hannah had to tame the most ferocious guardian of them all. . .





Hope you enjoyed our pumpkin adventure. . . Happy Halloween. . . Muahhahahahahahah (cough) (cough) hahahahahahahahahahaha (ahem) hahahahahahahah. . . .
