The story of this picture:

This photo was taken October 10, 2015
I was on a ride over to the coast enjoying a beautiful Fall afternoon.
I stopped to explore the pumpkin patch at Arata's Pumpkin Farm just south of Half Moon Bay
When I spotted this Young Woman with her two children.
The younger child, amid the pumpkins, was not too sure of it all. It must have been among his first real memories of Halloween
The daughter, somewhat more self composed, is observing how to be a mother to her little brother.
The mother is making sure to capture a wonderful memory.

Comments about the picture:

I was fortunate that I noticed this taking place and had my camera ready to capture the scene.

Each year, Arata Farms sets up an elaborate pumpkin patch experience in preparation for thousands of pumpkin seekers
This includes all sorts of attractions including a "pumpkin" maze constructed of hay bales.
