A Trip to the Pumpkin Patch

For Family Home Evening on Monday night we went to the Red Barn with all of the Johnsons (we missed you Kirk and Rachel!) It was so much fun and we made it out of there just before the sun went down. Of course we had to get some ice cream afterwards which was the bomb. I got Blueberry pie and it was delicious! I was so happy with that pumpkin that I picked out, I can't wait to carve a big jolly face on it!

All the cute kiddos. We're so glad we have our nieces and nephews to tag along with for all these activities. It just wouldn't be as fun without them! I took about 15 pictures of this pose and believe it or not, this is the best one I got!

Zachary with our cute nephew Cam. Cam forgot his shoes so Zachary was carrying him around the pumpkin patch and would tip him down to the ground head first to check out the pumpkins he thought he might want. They were quite the pair!
We had so much fun and it was so nice to spend some extra time with the family, I definitely think we will need to make this a tradition! It is so weird but I am already totally in the Christmas Spirit. I hope it's just a phase or Christmas will take forever to get here!
Does anyone know any classic Halloween movies we could rent that will get us back into the right season?

Looks like fun. We had so much fun on our pumpkin patch trip too. You had icecream too? You are all crazy. Thats what Ty and the girls got too. Have you had their apple cider doughnuts? So good. I guess I am the odd one out. I will get the icecream next time.
