Abby had the day off from school last Friday so we took advantage of the time to make our yearly pilgrammage to the pumpkin patch. No trip would be complete without the traditional "See how much I've grown" picture in front of this sign. Abby was happy to see she is almost to the "4" now but Landon was a bit perturbed to see he was just above the "3" mark. After all, in his mind he should be at the "4" too since he is 4-years-old!!
Nolan was just happy to be out and about and surrounded by pumpkins the size of his whole body! (Please excuse his crazy hair...he got a haircut the next day after seeing these pictures!)
It was fun to think about what a difference a year makes. Last year I had a sleeping Nolan strapped to me in a baby carrier. This year, there was no stopping this kid from exploring all of the different activities!
Landon loved this slide, until he realized how wet it was from the rain the night before. His pants were soaked by the end of the day.
The boys...
(Not sure what they're looking at here but obviously something more interesing than mom with her camera. Oh, and don't mind Landon's tongue up his nose either. We're working on that one...)
At least they are both looking at me in this one...
(Although Landon looks like a frusterated "gangsta" here.)
The girls
These are two of Abby's friends from the gym, Rowan and Riley. She doesn't get to see them as much now that she's in school so I was glad that we were able to arrange a playdate together on their day off.
After spending some time in the play area, we took our hayride up to the pumpkin patch where we were able to each pick our own pumpkins for the year.
Yeah I could probably save a few dollars and buy our pumpkins each year at the grocery store, but nothing beats going to the pumpkin patch to see where pumpkins really come from. It's a tradition I hope we continue for a long time!
