Creative sparks are flying through my open windows, so I’m ready to play Saturday Snapshot, hosted by Alyce, At Home With Books.
If you would like to participate, share snapshots you’ve captured, or ones caught by friends/family, and link up.
I’ve been thinking a lot about pumpkin-related moments this month. I love October and pumpkins. So I didn’t have to look far. This photo has been posted on my office bulletin board, and I gaze at it often. It’s a photo of my three grandchildren Alec, Aubrey, and Aaron, taken in October 1999. They were four, two-and-a-half and one years of age! (Now they are sixteen, fourteen-and-a-half, and thirteen!).
Here’s a more recent reprisal of the “pumpkins in a field” vignette.
Now I’m eager to see what the rest of you have found. Hope you’ll stop by and share….
Heee what a fun pumpkin themed passage of time photo. They’re all very sweet kids!

I love autumn, too, and pumpkin patch photos…I have my youngest grandson this weekend, so maybe we’ll find a pumpkin patch! He doesn’t like to pose for photos, but with the pumpkin backdrop, he might. Thanks for visiting, Paulita.

I know what you mean, Tea. In the bottom photo, the grandson on the left is almost a spitting image of his dad (my son).

Yes, Leslie…I was amazed at their ages (written on the back of the photo, otherwise I would have had to guess!). They’ve certainly grown up, haven’t they? Thanks for stopping by.

They are all so cute, and I love the comparison shot! My absolute favorite thing about Halloween is the pumpkins. I can’t wait until Terry carves mine this year. He does amazing pumpkin carving.

That is one heck of a pumpkin patch. My kids were about the age of the first shot the last time they were in one. We generally get ours from the grocery store.
I have an award for you.
