Saturday was one of my favorite days of the year ! Pumpkin Picking Day ! We pick pumpkins at the same farm we pick strawberries from .
Saturday was their first day open for the season so we had to be there when they opened !
You have to pack them in your car very strategically to get the most pumpkins :) This year we have 95 in our yard .. I know ...crazy ! Not to mention the 4 garbage bags of gourds !
We always surround our front planting bed.. put them on the porch .. put a few in our mailbox planting bed.
I haven't done a post on our Fall front porch yet , and tomorrow its transforming to A Halloween Porch.
I used my Fall sign , some scarecrows, wood crates, mums and pumpkins.
I painted the FALL sign last year on one of my old craft show shelves..They are perfectly distressed from so many years of hard use :) The other side of the board I painted the word JOY and use that on my Christmas porch :) I got the garland above the door at an estate sale last week , The same one I got the dishes for my hutch at ! It was $ 2.00 .. The tall skinny wooden scarecrow I got at a craft show this fall.. Don't mind the hoe handle on the right .. :)
My Fall wreath was poofed and fluffed from last year.. It has gold decomesh , wired burlap ribbon , animal print wired ribbon , orange sparkly ribbon, sunflowers, copper colored leaf pics, berry pics.
Thanks so much for stopping by ! I appreciate all your visits and nice comments ! Come back tomorrow to see my Halloween Porch ! Come follow me on Instagram , Facebook, and Pinterest ! Links in the sidebar ..
Saturday was their first day open for the season so we had to be there when they opened !
We got lots of white , blue and pink pumpkins... and of course the usual orange ones! Tons of gourds, and lots of dirt and sweat :) We had 3 generations of pumpkin pickers this year ! My husband, myself, my daughter, son # 2's girlfriend, son#1 , daughter-in-law,and their 2 boys. We had a great morning , but boy were we tired and dirty !
So many pumpkins and only so much room in the suburban ! My son and his wife and my daughter split a load.. and we gave my other sons girlfriend some of ours for in front of their apartment.
