The Pumpkin Patch!






My four favorite pumpkins!







This past Saturday, Bryan, Krista and I took Owen and Gavin to Nelson's Farm near Litchfield for Gav's first pumpkin festival! We also met Nick, Lauren and Ellie there too, which was such a treat for G (and me too)- spending all day with ALL of his cousins! He was so excited, he could hardly stand it! There was so much for the kids to do - I was impressed with all of the activities. Gavin loved jumping off of the hay bails, panning for marbles, playing on the slides and of course picking out the perfect pumpkin! We also walked through the corn maze, fed the sheep and goats, raced on stick horses, and watched them launch a pumpkin! It was so fun to watch all of the kids play together, Gavin cried when it was time to say goodbye - he loves being with Lauren, Ellie and Owen!

The girls (and Nick too) had so much fun with you guys on Saturday...Ellie was just looking at your pictures and said look, mom, we were lost in the corn because we didn't have a map!!! I'm so glad you guys found your way out!

Thank you again for taking Owen. He loves being with you guys and from the looks of the pictures, you all had a great time!

I'm glad the girls were there too -What a SPECIAL day! I'm sad we missed it...
