Pumpkin Patch

Today we went to the pumpkin patch up near where I grew up. It was so great. It was a little cold(in the 40's), but we still had a great time. It was a big family event. We met my dad, stepmom, and all 4 of my sisters and their families there. We got to go on a hay ride to pick our pumpkin right off the vine. We got 3 pumpkins, one for each of us. I can't wait to carve them this week hopefully. We also got to go to a petting zoo. Eli just watched the animals. He is really starting to notice more and more things. There were more things for the older kids to do. We got to watch Grace, Isaac, Olivia, Lily, and Maya go through the straw maze. Lily, Maya, and Olivia also rode on a barrel train ride. Eli will get to enjoy all of these things in years to come. :-)

Our Family at the Pumpkin Patch


After the pumpkin patch we went up to my mom's house for a family get together. My Uncle Tom and his wife Connie were here for a visit from Washington State. We haven't seen them in over 13 years. My cousin Annissa also came with 3 of her 5 kids. It was so great to see everyone.
