I love this time of year! I love seeing the trees turning beautiful colors. I love the smell of pumpkins, apples, smokey fires. I love baking yummy pumpkin pies or breads, apple pies and other yummy treats. I love snuggling up on the sofa with a warm blanket and a cup of hot chocolate. I love the crisp, cool mornings. I even love the rain.
This past weekend we celebrated this wonderful season by going to a pumpkin patch. I used to take the boys when we lived in Loma Linda. But we missed last year, probably because I was still learning how to deal with having 3 kids. So I was excited to go again this year. The first thing we did was go through the corn maze. I was very impressed with Daniel's sense of direction. He led us all the way through and then back out again. After that, it was a little lunch mixed in with pony rides for the older boys. Then, it was on to a hay ride which took us out to the far reaches of the farm and a very big patch of pumpkins. They even had white pumpkins which caught our attention. Finally, we rode back to purchase our pumpkins along with a piece of pumpkin pie and ears of corn. I would say it was a successful trip, and we all had lots of fun!
