off to the pumpkin patch :)

It was a gorgeous fall day in Indiana...perfect day to visit a pumpkin patch!! We headed north to Stuckey Farms and found pumpkins and apples just waiting us :) We picked a few apples and then waited for the wagon to come around and take us out to the pumpkins. Maryn was sooo excited!!! She kept saying, "I so excited to ride the wagon! I so excited to pick pumpkins!" Evidently pumpkin season wasn't great this year with it being so dry and the pumpkin patch had very few good pumpkins in it. We did find two little ones and then picked our big one from the ones up front. Of course the trip wouldn't be complete without some popcorn and an apple cider slushy :)

we got "pumpkin girl" last year and she has been out in our house most of the year. We're pretty excited to move her back outside for Halloween and then can hopefully get her hidden when it's over :)

random fun...

I ordered some early Christmas presents and the box arrived full of packing peanuts...Maryn loved pretending she was swimming!

gotta love the milk mustache :)

Churchyard 400

Two weeks ago Maryn participated in her first big bike race!! Her preschool held their annual "Churchyard 400" on a beautiful Saturday afternoon. There were games to play, a bounce house, food, crafts, bike decorating and of course the big race. Each child was asked to get sponsors for the race and families were invited to attend. Maryn was pretty excited to show off her new school to Mimi, Ceta, Uncle Brad, Mamaw and Papaw. It was so cute to see all the kids line up (by their class) at the start line...decorated bikes of all kinds and helmets :) While the race was only about 10 minutes long is was so cute to watch! At the end everyone walked away with a medal which made for a happy group of kids :)
