Our Fun Fall Day at "The Center" Pumpkin Patch

Today, Jay, Jack, Uncle Ben, Aunt Julie, Adeline, "Uncle Bibby," "Aunt Kick Kick," and I went to the pumpkin patch. This year, we decided to go to The Center in Palos. We could not have had a nicer day! The weather was simply gorgeous!!! I think Mother Nature FINALLY realized that it is the fall and not the summer anymore!

Anyhow, Jack had a blast with family. He loved the leaves, the hayride, petting the cow, goats, and ducks, riding all of the tractors, and most of all......the 2 really BIG pumpkins that he picked out! He has been learning all about pumpkins at school and we have been looking at them all over the neighborhood for the past couple of weeks. So needless to say, he has very anxiously been waiting to get some more pumpkins of his own (Papa bought him a few already!) We have not carved the pumpkins yet.....we are waiting until next week to do so. But today, we had a perfect outdoor fun fall day. Mommy especially loves the fall and I realized today that my days are numbered before I have to divide my time by 2. I am so very much looking forward to the new baby being born, but today I just enjoyed my 2 boys and our family as it stands today.

Here are some photos of our very fun day at the pumpkin patch!
