Always "better late than never", here's a look back at October when we took the twangels out for some pumpkin pickin'. As has become the late October tradition, off we go to find the perfect oversized orange so that we can carve it up. And in our case, you gotta find TWO (standard answer with twins :-) ) So with their walking shoes on and eyes ready to spot the prize, up the road we went to a small pumpkin' patch. Once we had arrived and unloaded, Evan and Taryn were immediately entranced by the amount of "balls" that lie on the ground in front of them. And FAR more mobile than last year, they were eager and willing to scout out each and every one (and some even a couple of times) before they made their selection. The elderly man that ran the place even gave each of them a mini-pumpkin so they could have a "model" in case their attention got momentarily taken by the cars driving by on the nearby road or the birds that flew by overhead. All said, they had a great time and we left there with two large pumpkin's, two small pumpkins, and twins who were more than ready for some dinner. The pumpkins were carved up the day before Halloween and got the stamp of approval form each of their "owners.": Taryn's was the sweet bat and Evan's was the Pumpkin and Owl. 'Twas once again a successful pumpkin time in the Tuttle house
