Pumpkin Time

Wow what a busy Saturday! A woman named Ilse from church came by in the morning to bring the kids some Halloween goodies....so thoughtful of her. The kids were so excited, partly about all the candies and goodies but mainly because she let them check out and play with her super cool motorized wheel chair! The kids had so much fun (ahhh... the little things in life).







Grace had her coloring within 2 minutes of ariving... These kids act like they are starved of attention.

Landon was pretty excited to learn how to make the the chair go... the beeping horn was an added bonus.

So after Ilse went home and some naps (trust me it was more work than it was worth) we headed to the pumpkin patch. We were nervous this morning when it started to rain but it actually turned out pretty nice. The kids had so much fun, they even got to feed the animals. The corn was a big hit also. After they each picked out a pumpkin which to my surprise were pretty small. They had so much fun and were pretty worn about by the end of the day. Another great Saturday....we love the Fall.



I think that Landon believes he is a dog.
FYI: There are two cows that are about to have babies at the pumpkin patch....perhaps an educational opportuninty....what a site that would be!

PUMPKINS!! We carved ours about 2 weeks ago - so they've been resting in the freezer until this week (so they wouldn't rot before the Halloween).
