pUmPkIn PaTcH

A few days ago we headed up to the Big Red Barn in search of the perfect pumpkin. The boys were super excited to go! We had told them that they had to be able to carry their own pumpkin back but of course that didn't happen. They all were looking for the biggest one and how could we tell them no?! Jaygen thinks it is a race. As soon as the tractor hayride drops us off, Jaygen takes off running as fast as he can as if the pumpkins are going to disappear. Pace on the other hand is in to hurry. He was just wandering around looking at all the pumpkins and just taking his sweet time. Now, Briggs...oh Briggs! He was running around as fast as he could too and picking up every pumpkin he could lift and throwing it. Luckily none of them broke, but I think Briggs thought it was a field full of orange balls:) They had a little maze there this year too that the boys had tons of fun running through. It was a great family night!!!! Jaygen, Pace, Briggs

The search is on!

Briggs

Don't let the "cheesy" smile fool ya...Briggs is just waiting to chuck the pumpkin!

I know, I know...what is Pace wearing? This is one battle that I refuse to fight! He wanted to wear his football clothes, with his soccer pads, and his cowboy handkerchief tucked in his pants like football players do, and he had to have black under his eyes. He is such a character!

I couldn't resist this picture!!!! If you look really close you can see something shiny poking out the top of the maze...oh, that is Todd's bald head! Ha Ha Love ya Todd!

All three boys made out with their perfect pumpkin and mom and dad had to carry them! :)

How fun! I love Pace's outfit, and I agree, sometimes it just isn't worth fighting over! Cute boys!

Pace is hilarious! I have to fight Meg all the time too. Sometimes a Princess just has to be ok to go grocery shopping in. :) Looks like lots of fun!
