Last Saturday, we went to the Elgin Christmas Tree Farm, not to pick out our Christmas Tree, but for the Pumpkin Festival.  Last year, we missed going to a pumpkin patch.  We more than made up for that lost opportunity this year.  We had 6-times the fun because we were with 5 other families (plus our family makes 6!).  It was our first outing with our NFFs (new found friends).   All in all, we were 12 adults and 21 kids.  You can say we had a little barrio fiesta going.  Hahaha!

Abby wasn’t in a very good mood the first few minutes after we arrived at the pumpkin patch.

I thought she’ll smile if it were the two us in the photo.  No such luck!

She was still in a foul mood during our family pic photo op.

Abby’s bad mood disappeared when she did some pumpkin painting.  I posted an entry about it here.

Unforunately, the paint started peeling off  from the pumpkin before the day was even over.  I might as well just turn the pumpkin into a pie or some other dish with coconut cream.  Veggies are good you, you know?!  Load up on them and you won’t ever find yourself reading diet pill reviews.
