Pumpkin Patch 08

What's Halloween without a trip to the pumpkin patch, right? This was our 4th year going and this time our good friends the Proffitts came along. It made it even better having them with us!

If only you knew what it took to actually get the above picture. We are quite the spectacle these days.


This chubby pumpkin was such a trooper. He slept the whole time.



This year, Rachel actually touched the animals. She was all smiles until this little goat decided to kick her. It was all downhill from there.



This was the pumpkin she got.

This was the pumpkin she wanted.


Sarah LOVES our little friend Booker. If only he were a few years older:)

Caleb even got a pumpkin. He's looking forward to carving a masterpiece for FHE tonight.

That first picture qualifies as a genuine family picture. You are off the hook for another year. I have a feeling i know what picture is coming with my Christmas card. It is so cute!! Your kids are off the charts adorable...I shouldn't be surprised, look at their mom.
