It is October in CA!

Fall is upon us here this week. We have had cold temperatures and rain. Lots and lots of rain. I do see today that the sun is trying to peek out from behind the clouds. I do miss the Southern CA weather of sunny and 70.

We made out annual trip to Bates Nut Farm this past weekend. It was a lot of fun walking through the field and finding our "perfect" pumpkin. We finally found it and she weighed in at a whopping 109 pounds. She is a huge pumpkin. I have always wanted a "Big Mac" but we always decided on 3 little ones. This year, being our last year here, we decided to just go for it. So, we brought her home and she is even bigger here than she looked. Sarah had a great time at Bates. That is one thing I will miss when we go to Okinawa. There are no pumpkin patches there, so we will have to resort to the commissary for our pumpkin for 3 years. But, we will enjoy every opportunity we have been given. I hope you enjoy the pics of our trip to the pumpkin patch. Have a wonderful week.
