Pumpkin Patch

Sometimes it is the simple things in life that bring you joy and it isn't till those are taken away that you realize how much you miss them. I have always wanted to create memories with Logan and Madison, so that one day they will say "remember when Aunt Court did this with us." So since Logan's first visit to the pumpkin patch, we have been going to the same one. It wasn't anything grand, but on of my co-workers families runs it and it was a nice small place with lots to do. This year they were not able to do it due to family issues, so we were left without a pumpkin patch. I am not going to lie, I almost cried when I found out the news because this was going to be Madison's first visit. So I started searching and found that the pumpkin patch that I had taken my first graders to on a field trip had moved, and it was closer to us!

My brother and I loaded up the kids in their pumpkin shirts that I made and headed to the farm. We had perfect fall weather, sunny and high 60's. Logan had a blast, Madison just took it all in.  I am sure next year she will be chasing her brother to do all the activties too. So Plan B worked and hopefully we have found a new option when it comes to pumpkin farms.
