Family Fun Night

On Saturday evening, our family went to a Diane's Pumpkin Patch with some friends. We had a great time. The weather was absolutely perfect. It was sunny and warm. This was the first day the pumpkin patch was open, so we had the best choice of any pumpkins we wanted.









We told the kids they could each pick out any pumpkin they wanted. These are their picks.












They each picked out a small pumpkin. Allyson calls hers the "strawberry pumpkin" since it is shaped like a strawberry. Then we went in search for the "perfect family pumpkin". Maybe we will try to carve one this year? We'll see? This is the one the Broc picked for our family pumpkin - very large! The second picture shows our wagon filled with our selected pumpkins. And what a bargain - we got the wagon full, plus one more that mom couldn't leave there (yes - the green one) all for $25.





















There was also a petting zoo with goats, geese, a llama and a donkey. We got to hear the donkey "talk" very loudly. They llama wouldn't let us pet him, but the goats did.




















An opportunity for a family picture.














After the pumpkin patch, we helped Taylor celebrate her 10th birthday! We grilled brats, hot dogs and fresh veggies on the grill. Then we had homemade, fresh apple and cherry pie. They were both really good! Thanks for letting us help you celebrate Taylor!
We also learned about Cherry Bounce. (We will be waiting for a call to come over around Christmas, when the time comes to open and sample.)
