pumpkins for my pumpkins

last week we went to the kidspace museum pumpkin festival. there was a small area with hay and maybe 8 pumpkins. wah wah. so we had to find a real pumpkin patch this weekend but also didn't want to drive far. read about tapia brothers in encino and decided to give it a try. we went early... there before 10am. wasn't crowded yet. we were able to take pics without others photobombing us but the boys were not cooperating as you can see from the pics. the boys liked the bikes/cars, hay tunnel and bounce house. we even bumped into ezee's friend leonie who lives a block away from us. maki picked out a pumpkin to bring home. finally... pumpkin patch success!
