Ever since Ben was born, I have gone to the pumpkin patch in October with my sister and her family. We always take lots of pictures and enjoy the hay, animals, and atmosphere.
Ben less than 1 year old. Our first time at the pumpkin patch together:

Looking so old. Miss my wee little pumpkin of the past but so proud of his growth!

This year I wasn't able to go with them since I have moved and I was having a really hard time with that. Matt and I talked about it and it turns out Matt hasn't been to a pumpkin patch in over a decade and really wanted to go with me! So after consulting Google we went out in search of a farm. After one disappointment in Mountain View we finally found what we were looking for in Morgan Hill. I may be missing my old traditions but a large part of marriage is starting our own traditions and I'm really looking forward to continuing this one and am so grateful for a husband who supports me and takes care of all of my needs- even if they're only silly little pumpkin ones. :)
