Nielsen Pumpkin Patch

While visiting in Yakima, I was hoping we would go to a pumpkin patch up in Naches that had been recommended to me. Pete wasn't interested in going to one (as usual) and both boys were more concerned with playing with their cousins. So instead we decided to visit "The Nielsen Pumpkin Patch", and pick our Halloween pumpkins right out of the garden. Each child picked out a pumpkin they could take home to later carve (even I got to pick one! lol). I must admit...this was much more enjoyable and fun to pick out pumpkins this way instead of going to some farm (ssshhh!! don't tell Pete this. he'll never want to go to an actual pumpkin patch again if he heard me say this! lol).
