Pumpkin Picking!

Today was the day we decided to do the annual Rivera family pumpkin picking.  As always, we had a really fun time playing around Springdale Farm.  The boys love it there, especially the hay ride to and from the pumpkin patch.

Ryan measuring himself against the big pumpkin...2.25'  

Check out Nathan's sunglasses.  He would not let us fix them.  Here he is measuring in at 3.25'.

 It was a beautiful day for a hay ride.

 

 Ryan wanted to pick them all up.  The one in front is the one we ended up getting.  It's gigantic.

 Nathan wanted to pick a "medium" sized pumpkin.  This is the one he ended up picking.

 Don't mind my hair...it was the best family shot we could get.

 Sign we need a third marshmallow?

On Friday, we went to the annual Moorestown Firehouse Open House.  They teach stop, drop and roll, dialing 911, and what an ambulance is for.  Then we all rode on a firetruck.  Ryan acted like the siren.

Lastly, Randy and I went to see NJ Governor Chris Christie speak at the local town hall meeting on Thursday.  He is an amazing speaker and it was an event we're sure to remember for a while.  I actually asked a question about the housing market and it was featured in a local SJ Courier Post article.  Check out the link below.
