Time for another “almost” Wordless Wednesday post and this week I am featuring a photo of my little grand daughter! A few weeks ago we took her to the local Pumpkin Patch to pick a few pumpkins! This pumpkin picking and apple picking is a family tradition and we started it back when our daughter was 7 years old. She is now 28 so it’s been a very long time!
We start our day with a big family breakfast and a prayer. We then all pile into the cars and head on over to Strite’s Orchards in Harrisburg PA and spend the afternoon picking apples in the apple orchard and then scouting around for the perfect pumpkins in their Pumpkin Patch.
This year we picked a bushel of apples and we got 5 gorgeous pumpkins for our Fall decorating! Miss Gia picked her own pumpkin and her Daddy carved it into a scary looking Jack-o-lantern for her. Hubby and I didn’t carve ours and just have them sitting out on our 2 front porches along with some gourds, hay bales and corn stalks! Such fun!
Well there you have it! Another “almost” Wordless Wednesday post for this week! Is everyone ready for Halloween?
That is a wonderful tradition that you can now share with your grand daughter. And a blessed way to start if off with a family breakfast and prayer. Cute picture!!! I”d make it into a poster!
Your little sweetie looks so happy in that photo–her beautiful smile says it all. Thanks for sharing.
I think its awesome how you have carried the tradition now through to your grandchildren. What’s even better is that you are taking part in their lives as well. What a blessing kids and grandkids are, and how treasured their memories will be of you in years to come.
Cute! Going to pick our pumpkin is one of our traditions as well…hope it doesn’t rain this weekend!
This is a wonderful family tradition and I can see that your granddaughter was very happy. Lately, In each photo you take she seems to be growing up and becoming a young lady.
We also have one here where I live and my Son use to love to go when he was little! He use to love to be able to pick out his own pumpkin to take home with him!
(Fun at the Local Pumpkin Patch – Wordless Wednesday) These places are so nice for the whole family to go to and enjoy.
