Today Sade, Ayodele & I drove up to North Las Vegas to Gilcrease Orchard. We wandered up and down the rows of pumpkins trying to pick out the very best ones! Sade was the first to find hers... it was actually the first one she saw. Ayodele finally found a good one, carried it around for a while, then changed his mind when he found a similar one that was bigger. Kayode's pumpkin took a little longer. Once the bigger kids found theirs, they were trying to help Kayode, but he wanted to find and pick his very own. We finally stopped trying to help and low-and-behold, Kayode found the perfect pumpkin.

After the pumpkin patch, we walked down through the apple orchard and picked a few apples. They are crunchy, sour, good and scrumptious. On our way out of the orchard, we bought some already picked pears and some homemade apple cider.

Who knew there was a real working farm in Las Vegas of all places!
