THE GREAT PUMPKIN PATCH

Thanks a bunch to M &M Photography for actually capturing a family photo!!

Today was a beautiful sunny day and after finding out that some couples were unable to make our typical Sunday evening small group we decided to enjoy the wonderful fall day and headed out to the pumpkin patch. It is a great pumpkin patch as they don't mind the kids climbing all over the pumpkins, which is what Brayden loves to do. At one point he was rolling pumpkins around as fast as he could. Becca found her perfect pumpkin and carried it around until she was distracted by the goats. Andrea just followed all the action from one pile of pumpkins to another, making sure her lovie was always within sight. We did the maze, which was totally blacked out-I couldn't see a thing, it was so cute to hear Becca's little voice in the darkness, I'm right here mommy-like no big deal that we couldn't see a thing. The big moment this year was Becca on the ponies. She is no longer afraid and rode with a big smile on her face. Brayden was concerned he was to heavy and had a discussion in the car ride over about how much he weighed. We had made a brief visit a couple weeks ago without Ron and while in the car today we over heard Becca telling Brayden that her pony had missed her and was calling for her-Where's Becca, Where's Becca. So she got to ride her pony again and was full of smiles. Andrea loved the goats but didn't quite understand how to feed them. When I gave her the animal feed she promptly ate it! Hopefully it is just good fiber. This year they had three camel and were giving camel rides-if you can believe it Becca wanted to ride them, I am not sure she would have followed through but she was full of bravery for the day-even when the bunnies bite her finger. It was a lot of fun but it seems just yesterday I was there with a little baby and now I just see three little kids! The years are flying by.

I think Andrea was trying to crawl in, except her head got stuck!
