Pumpkin Patch

I'm back! Thank you for being patient while I took a break during this busy season. While I may have taken a break from the blog our life was running at full speed. I'm going to try and catch up over the next few weeks so be ready for lots of fall fun!

One day we went to the pumpkin patch with our friends. This was a new to us pumpkin patch/apple orchard. When we arrived it started pouring down rain, but thankfully after a quick shower/torrential downpour it was clear the rest of the day.

This picture reminded me…while we had tons of fun and Sawyer and Nora loved it. Taking 3 kids to the pumpkin patch by yourself (yes, I had a friend with me, but she also had three little ones to wrangle) was a struggle. A baby who wants to move, but can't get down due to wet conditions isn't fun. And I only have so many hands. In fact I told the kids they could each have a pumpkin, but it had to be one they could carry because I simply didn't have enough hands to carry 3 pumpkins. Thankfully they were okay with that.

How about this one mom?

Look we found a mini pumpkin for Kolter

The pumpkins in the patch were scarce so only Nora and Kolter found their pumpkins (thankfully). After we returned from the patch Sawyer picked out a pumpkin from the store.
