Pumpkins!

Sunday, October 7th

It was the warmest Pumpkin Patch day I think I we have ever had!
Seriously, shorts weather. I ended up being over dressed. It was beautiful!

The kids had another great time at Maris Farms.
Elissa rode the bull. Zach didn't want to.

Bummer! My videos will not upload here or youtube. I've got to figure it out.

Elissa was so unimpressed with the cow ride. Definitely too old. :-)

But not too old for the bouncy pillow!

Now what they have been waiting for….the zip line!
It was very good that Zach did this at Amy's house or he would have never done it here. :-)

So much fun that they begged to go again!

Now we are going to go get lost in the maze. It took us a long time to get through it and I was very ready to be out. I was getting a little panicky and ready to just plow through the corn stalks. Seriously. Not my thing. :-)

Elissa was getting frustrated with us too. She wanted to be the leader at all times and wanted to stop and read every sign. We all felt like this.

Finally out of the maze and ready to pick our pumpkins!!

Elissa didn't want any help picking out a pumpkin. Oh, my very independent girl. Zach let me guide him.

The last thing they got to do was the Speleo Kave. There are 5 stories in this box that you have to climb up and around and back down. The adults that went said that it gets very claustrophobic and you just want out. No thank you. The kids loved it and did it a couple of times.

It was a very long day of church, Christmas play practice and then the pumpkin patch. We were all exhausted, but so glad that we went on this gorgeous day.
