The Pumpkin Patch

Every year since Colby's been born we've taken him to the pumpkin patch to pick the very best pumpkins they have to offer.  Usually we wait until the weekend right before Halloween but this year the weather was so nice that we decided to go a little earlier in the year.  We headed out on a very warm Saturday afternoon to Schmidt's where we always go.  We've tried other places and always end up at Schmidt's because the pumpkins there are just the best.  As I said it was very warm, I was holding the baby, Chris was pushing the wheelbarrow so we didn't really get any good pictures.  Makes me kind of sad because I absolutely love the pumpkin patch and the great scenery it makes.  Here are just a few and really they are not good but you get the idea.

So this picture is horrible of Brody, he looks like a 30 lb old man baby in this picture.  I promise he's much much cuter in person.

Cornbelly's

This year over UEA we decided to do some fun stuff around here instead of heading out of town.  On Thursday the boys and I went with Nancy and Kristen, Lizzie, and Aiden to Cornbelly's at Thanksgiving Point.  It was a beautiful day and we a had a ton of fun.  I think we will try to make this a tradition because it wasn't too crowded and the kids loved it!  They got to do all kinds of fun things like:

Rope swing...

Ride in a barrel that looks like a cow... 

Pretend to be someone else...

 Roll around and play in corn, lots and lots of corn...

 Ride really cool go carty things...

 Pretend to be a cowboy...

 Take a wagon ride...

 And their favorite thing of all...build a log cabin out of gigantic lincoln logs!!!

What a fun day!
