Pumpkin Patch 2016

Well, my favorite time of year has arrived & this weekend we kicked off October with our annual trip to the pumpkin patch.  We took the much anticipated hayride out to the somewhat muddy, but always pretty patch.  The girls had a blast picking out the two biggest pumpkins in the patch they could find & they even picked a little white pumpkin for baby girl #3, which made them happy.  This years corn maze was even more challenging than years past, but the girls are fearless so they had no trouble completing it, even if it did take a little more time than normal.  Daddy is always such a good sport and typically ends up getting muddy as he is the designated pumpkin carrier from the field.  For the record, Jessica's pumpkin weighed in at 46 pounds & Ella's pumpkin was a close 2nd at 37 pounds.  We love this tradition in our family & are looking forward to seeing our 3rd little pumpkin playing in the patch next year.  Happy October to my blog readers :)
