the Patch!

I love going to the pumpkin patch.
Others don't.... (Eric)
so most years I take the kids and go
I've been waiting for all the elements to come together 
well really just 2
sunshine and all the kids to be free
but it seems the odds were against me
whenever the boys were free it was raining and
whenever there was sunshine someone has previous plans
now that certain someone who doesn't like to go
suggested several times that we could just pick up some pumpkins at Albertsons 
but what fun is that?
So one sunny morning I took my opportunity to at least take Grace


 She was more than happy to select everyone a pumpkin



She carefully selected each pumpkin with a certain person in mind

girl with a purpose

she tip toed through the pumpkins
she didn't want to get her boots muddy


so maybe not MY ideal family outing
but to be honest the boys didn't care much
and 
Grace and I had a great morning adventure together!

This is so funny to me because we were so close to doing this too. Ryan is also not a big fan. We finally squeaked it in on a speed stop. Gracie is such a cutie, and it looks like it worked out perfectly for everyone!!!
