Pumpkin Patch Fun

The grandparents will enjoy this post. We spent FHE last night at a pumpkin patch with pumpkins, pony rides, pumpkin graveyard, bubbles, bouncy house, and so much more. The kids had a blast and I got several cute pictures so enjoy!

I think this is the first bouncy house the kids have ever been in. They had it all to themselves.

I love this shot of Spencer on the pony with all the bubbles.
Lauren thought she was on a female pony. She happened to pick the smallest pony who turned out to be a boy.
Piles and piles of pumpkins

Almost 4 feet. Where does time go?
I love this shot too. The bubble machines worked really well.

The pumpkin graveyard was a bit creepy at first.
It had a small spooky tunnel you could walk through. Spencer didn't want to go through it. He really didn't want to go through it,
but he is a brave little boy,
and daddy went with him.
Plus he has a big sister who helped him the second time. How cute!
By the end of the night the tunnel was Spencer's favorite thing and he kept running back to go by himself. See, not so scary afterall.

The biggest pumpkin

They were super heavy
And of course we had to see the so cute pumpkins

Hope you enjoyed your vicarious trip to our pumpkin patch. Next week will be the pumpkin carving pictures so get ready.
Quick baby update: I had my 33 week appointment today and, though I keep having contractions, I am still not dilated. The baby is staying put for now. I'm beginning to wonder if she'll be late because some of these contractions have been really painful and they aren't doing anything. . .yet. Thank you for all your prayers for us.

We loved the pictures. Lots of fun and wish we could have been there. Just make sure you keep that little baby in there until her time!

We need to do that one of these years but both Elisabeth and Lincoln went or are going to them for field trip/Achievement Days activity. Elisabeth got a coupon at school for an IKEA haunted house. That may be the extent of our Halloween field trip excitement. How scary can it be??? AAAAHHH Lutefisk!!!!(very stinky Scandanavian fish that has been soaked in lye until it rots!!!)

This seemed like fun! Lots more to do than the one we went too. One place I want to go to sometime is "this is the place heritage park". They have lots of fun things for the kids around Halloween time, they even have a hayride.
