"Behold, children are a heritage from the Lord, the fruit of the womb a reward. Like arrows in the hand of a warrior are the children of one's youth. Blessed is the man who fills his quiver with them." Psalm 127:3-5

Pumpkin Patch

It is GORGEOUS here today! We have been crazy busy around here and I was bummed that we hadn't yet made it to a pumpkin patch. But today was a normal day--there was plenty of time for an excursion--and it was perfect weather, not to mention that it's Halloween. We called up our delightful neighbors and asked them if they were up to going and we made it a date! It was great! It wasn't big or extravagant but it was close to our house and cheap. The kids had a blast! They ran around like they'd been caged up for years or something (except Elliott, he slept in his car seat the entire time! I guess he wasn't impressed.)

As always Caleb has recounted the event in detail:
"Cayden go pumpkin patch. Pick pumpkins. HAY! Run in hay! Red tractor--broke. Hee (see) red tractor. Cayden up! Lulu, Abby, Eeefin (Ethan), Mawmaw (Molly) pick pumpkins. Drive ban (van). Mawmaw, Kenin's (Kevin's) ban."

Now for the pictures:

The gang's all here (just none of them are looking)

Caleb & Lulu--being cheesy

Caleb picking out his pumpkin. He could have gotten a big one but insisted on a little guy!

They look guilty don't they? They loved running through this maze.

My little pumpkins!

Caleb was worried because the tractor was leaving and he wanted to watch its every move.

Goofy kids!

Huge tree. Big tractor. Little boy.
My favorite picture ever!
