Diana's Pumpkin Patch

    The kids recently had a Thursday and Friday off of school.  We always like to try and take advantage of extra days and do something fun.  We decided it would be the perfect day to head to Dianna's Pumpkin Patch.  This is the pumpkin patch that we go to every year and we always have a nice time.  It never really feels like fall, until we have made a trip to the pumpkin patch.  We chose a Friday to visit because we figured it would be less busy then on the weekends.  Since it was still early in the season, there was such a good selection of pumpkins to pick.  The weather was absolutely perfect and it was the perfect fall day.  The corn maze was great this year.  Gracie and Joey stayed and played in the corn while Ashlyn, Dawson, and me tackled the maze.  We weren't able to find all the clues, but we did manage to find our way back out so we called that a win in our book!

I really think this may be Ashlyn's last year of this shot.  She didn't get a whole lot of air.
