Fall, was always my least favorite season...until I had kids. Now it is one of my favorite...simply because I know it will include a trip to the Pumpkin Patch. Since we have gone to this one in Decatur two years in a row, I am declaring it an "annual" event. Ha!
We ventured to Decatur (good things come from small towns, right!) with family and friends for a fun day to play. We went with my Mommy friends Abbey, Holly and Sarah. My Mom decided to join us, too. What a great helping hand she was between our 7 children.
My Maggie especially loves this little PP, because it has several fun farm animals. She got to interact with fish, baby chicks, goats and lambs. We took pictures, fed the animals, had a hay ride and barrel train ride...got faces painted and picked a pumpkin. What a wonderful day.
After all that fun, my precious Mom invited us back to her house for a yummy lunch and girl time. The kids played outside and the babies got to be held by my Nana (a 7 time grandmother, and an 8 time great grandmother).
It was a really great day in my book. Loads of my favorite people all in one spot...happy kids, special memories and full bellies!

P.S I made the girls little pumpkin shirts. I am so proud of them. They were a "no sew", $5 project! A how-to post soon to follow.
