sneak peek

this morning we took owen back to tanaka farms to see the pumpkins--i can't believe owen was just a little pumpkin himself when we were there just a year ago. postcards or the like of the great pumpkin are coming soon but i couldn't resist posting a few. . . here he just looks like a little angel. i'm not actually sure how this picture happened--this is in the petting zoo/farm game/farmers market part of the farm where they have pretty displays of pumpkins under a giant canopy. we tried to take some owen & pumpkin shots here but everytime we got him close to a pumpkin he went off screaming in the other direction. so i guess it's pretty accurate since you see very few pumpkins in the shot. but he did pause and that's amazing.

here's owen on the wagon for the tractor pull around the farm. look at that perfect pose--again, no pumpkins. so charming though that you really dont mind ;)
and my favorite--owen giving a pumpkin a loving little pat. or picking dead leaves off the pumpkin vine and squishing bugs. most of these pictures in the pick-your-own patch are of the back of owen's head. we didn't actually buy any pumpkins by the way. he was more interested in the dirt and every time we tried to put a pumpkin in the wheelbarrow owen screamed. so that's when we went to the park and he ran around the grass instead.
