It's Pumpkin Pickin' Time - Fx4

We went to a local Farmer's Market last weekend to pick out pumpkins - or as Zander calls them...apples!
I pointed to a nice round one and said "How about this one?". So, he ran over to it and tried to pick it up.



It was a bit too big for him.
They had these cool pedal tractors there. He couldn't figure out the pedals yet...so he tried doing it the Fred Flinstone way....



We had picked out a cute "pie" sized pumpkin for him. He wanted to give it a ride on his tractor.


Then he figured out he had no where to sit.....so he moved it here instead.



When we went to pay for his pumpkin he found this:


He had to have it....and then tried to bite into it and eat it all the way home.

On our way out....he saw this gourd and really wanted it. I said no and then got this picture.



"Dear Lord, please give me a gourd for my birthday. Its all I will ever want and I will never ever ask for anything ever again. Ever. Amen."
Now, go visit Candid Carrie to participate in the Friday Foto Fiesta Finish or just to see more pictures!!!

Have a great weekend!
