First Half of Fall Break

     Over fall break, we did the traditional pumpkin patch visit.  This time though, we did it without Jon since he was away on a hiking trip.  We missed him on the bumpy wagon ride.  We missed him during the tough selection process.  Most of all, however, we missed him when it was time to lug the heaviest pumpkin ever back to the van which was parked oh so far away.  Scott kindly pointed out a closer parking spot on our journey back, during which I pulled and strained every muscle in back, neck, and arms in an attempt to get this monster back to the trunk.  Live and learn, I guess...or just bring Jon next year. 



     Over break, we also ventured to see this precious little pumpkin and her mom and dad.  Anna is the sweetest, happiest, cutest little one around!   I've seen so many pictures and videos of her over this past year, but it was wonderful to see her again in person. 
 Lovable baby, lovable dog...if only they lived closer!
 Sophie impressed us all with her HIGH FIVE dog tricks. 
   After visiting, we did some farm touring.  Molly comes from a farming family, so we were able to see/pet/hold/feed chickens (over 100,000!), goats, kitties, rabbits, cows, piglets, and dogs.  Wow!!!   




Two cats and a dog have nothing on them!  We certainly enjoyed our visit!

  1. Guess you better dig out those old workout VHS tapes we used to do in college to prepare for next year's trip to the pumpkin patch! (Or...just bring Jon...) :)
    Love all the pumpkin patch pictures...and the pics from your visit to Ohio!! Anna loved getting to meet all your kiddos. And Sophie did, too! I think we would all love it if our visit lasted 3 days next time instead of just 1. :)
