"I went to the woods because I wanted to live deliberately. I wanted to live deep and suck out all the marrow of life;
to put to rout all that was not life and not when I had come to die, discover that I had not lived." ~Henry David Thoreau

The Pumpkin Patch

Last Wednesday I got to chaperon Ethan's class to a local pumpkin patch. Well, it's not very local because it was over 30 miles away, but it was worth the trip. The pumpkin patch field trip is by far my favorite all year. It was an incredible place with so much to do! A hayride, giant slides, a pumpkin shaped bounce house, a tractor pulled train, and numerous fields of pumpkins!

We had so much fun. Ethan wasn't hesitant at all to go down the giant slides, which surprised me. He did them over and over. They were even a little too tall for me! Lauren stayed in the sling most of the time and cuddled while Hailey tried to keep up with Ethan and his friends. We will have to take Daddy back there sometime because this is now on our list of "favorites".

Wow...30 miles away! It looks like it was worth it! :) It's funny how most of us have the same pictures, just different kids! :)
