Bracken Pumpkin Patch

Today we did our annual trip to the pumpkin patch. We chose to return to the one we went to last year, which happens to be the home of one of Erin's preschools....Bracken United Methodist Church Pumpkin Patch. They do a great job with it and proceeds go to her school, so a win win for our family. Both my kids went to this school in the summer for Joy Camp and both are asking to go back next summer...so we mine as well give back to them too!
We were thrilled to discover this year that if you go on a weekend they have hay rides and train rides...the kids were in heaven. Plus free donuts and cider! We had a great time as always and got some great pictures of the kids. I am loving their fun ages.
It is so interesting to hear them talk, not just to us, but to each other. To watch their friendship form and see how they are growing up as people. I love the excitement of the simple things. We had wanted to drive to a farm about 45 minutes from here with a big maze, games, and a petting zoo, but in the end we chose this and it was great. It was a beautiful day here and so nice to enjoy it with my family. I feel so blessed to have these two children in my life.
Here are some photos of our fun day...
I love the love between them...

Howdy! I know this is kinda off topic however I'd figured I'd ask.
Would you be interested in exchanging links or maybe guest authoring a blog article or vice-versa?
My blog covers a lot of the same topics as yours and I feel we could greatly benefit from each other.

If you might be interested feel free to send me an email.
I look forward to hearing from you! Awesome blog by the way!

Having read this I believed it was really enlightening.
I appreciate you spending some time and effort to put
this article together. I once again find myself personally
spending a significant amount of time both reading and leaving comments.
But so what, it was still worthwhile!
