a Visit to the Pumpkin Patch

This morning, Rich said "Why don't we go get a pumpkin tonight." Sounded like a great idea. Bekah has been a little down, having a rough spot in school, activity is good. I got home from work and we had Halloween decorations out! Yeah! I was so excited. Rich put some Halloween decorations outside and inside. I was ready to get our pumpkin. We went to a local church pumpkin patch, it was so sweet seeing the little ones picking out their pumpkins. Bekah made the comment she was the only "big person" there... I corrected her with, "No, there are three of us!" But really there were a bunch of young adults looking for their own pumpkins. Of course I took my camera. Bekah wasn't really in the mood and I thought I would cheer her up. It took a little work. She was allowing me to take pictures, but she wasn't happy with any of them. I snapped away... I got her to come around. I'm glad she can find the humor in her dad and I acting silly. Life is so much easier that way. So Bekah found the perfect pumpkin, Bekah affectionately named Gilbert. Bekah also found Gilbert a friend and at this moment, I don't recall the name given to the friend pumpkin, it sounded very similar to Gilbert. Tomorrow night will be pumpkin carving night.
