The Pumpkin Patch Field Trip

These are totally out of order but I have having problems tonight moving them. Anyway, this was after our big morning. Brayden wanted to carve the pumpkin he got but we decided painting could be just as fun and maybe the pumpkin might last a little longer. Both kids had a lot of fun although they thought mixing the paint was most fun.

This is Andrea, after a 2.5 hour nap. She was worn out! She kept up with the kids all morning, from school, the pumpkin patch and then the park.... she was a little trooper.

So today was finally the day when the sun was shining and Brayden's class was able to make the scheduled Pumpkin Patch field Trip. The girls and I decided to tag along, so nice that his teacher is very relaxed, seeing as we couldn't drive as our car is pretty full. The day started out with the usual routine of Wed chapel. Becca was so excited to be at Brayden's class and just jumped right in as one of the kids. It was so fun to sit with Brayden's class and hear him say the pledges and sing. Brayden didn't want to sit by me....even when his teacher tried to get us to sit together, but he still had a little goofy grin every time I looked at him. Becca got a prize along right along with the kids for sitting quietly in chapel-she was so fun to watch...such a great listener, and so grown up.

The pumpkin patch was lots of fun. The kids got to feed goats, sheep and some very cute baby pigs. Andrea didn't want to do any feeding just looking, Becca loved feeding any and every Animal. Brayden had fun throwing feed at the ducks and turkeys and watching them run for it.

This is most of Brayden's class, it is a fun bunch more boys than girls but not too out of control. We all got to go on a hay ride and they had a ton of fun running through a corn maze that it totally pitch black. Becca had no problems this year going through by herself. After all the pumpkin fun we loaded up and headed for a park where we had lunch and played for a good hour. It was quite a day!

Becca fed all her feed and Andrea's. She was very careful as to how much she was feeding and saved half a bag for later in the day.
