off to the patch

I love  yearly traditions like going to the pumpkin patch!

I am all about making the most of every season and holiday that comes.

I think my family is slowing outgrowing it but I am not ready to give up

our year round traditions yet. Two weeks ago we went to Stoney Ridge

in search of pumpkins, the corn maze and yummy donuts. 

Jordan was bummed he missed the FFA corn maze so we made that our 

first adventure. We walked in circles for a while and then the kids took off their

own to find the way out. Josh and I walked more circles and I was actually 

really over that maze by the time we found our way out. 

The kids were out there waiting for us.

Then we were off to the patch to find the perfect pumpkin.

We found a "Cinderella" pumpkin and the kids were excited.

We have learned over the years that one big pumpkin is perfect for our family.

We then get little ones to paint and decorate.
