The Pumpkin Patch

This weekend I was able to take a quick trip home to Indiana with a friend and her children. I had such a wonderful visit with my parents, and were able to surprise my grandparents with a visit.


Don't you enjoy the subtle tribute to the Cardinals in the background? Ha! I must admit... I've jumped on the band-wagon and am a Cardinals fan full-force. So excited about them going to the World Series!!! Go Cards!


Don't my grandparents look amazing for being in their 90's??? My grandpa just turned 98 last Wednesday.

Today we went on our first field trip of the year- the the Pumpkin Patch.



We all loaded onto a van and headed out into the country.


There were so many fun things to do: a "sand box" full of corn


An awesome hay slide






Panning for "gold"

Okay, aren't the ADORABLE??? :)




















There was also a small petting zoo, and we got to pet the cutest animals!




And then we went to the Pumpkin Patch! Each student was able to pick out their own pumpkin, and we took a hayride to get the the field.
