Little Pumpkins

October 5th, 2008 · 2 Comments

Just like we did last year around this time, today the Tassavas headed out to Thorn Crest Farm, a lovely little homestead southwest of town. Once the littlest member of the family emerged from her post-nap funk, we had a blast trooping around the piles of pumpkins and gourds, choosing a few apples for later, petting the cow and the horse, and generally soaking up the fall-on-a-farm ambiance.

I’ll leave to Shannon a more detailed account, but suffice it to say that the girls were happy to find some pumpkins for the house

    We loved Thorn Crest when the girls were little – in fact we still do. We got some wonderful pumpkins at a farm on Cty Rd one, between 246 and Hwy 3. Close to town and great pumpkins!! Fabulous pictures.

    Fun to compare how much bigger the girls are this year than last! Can’t wait to hear Shan’s detailed version!
