WW – A Place Where There Were Pumpkins

by

On Saturday we took the family to a local church that was hosting a little fall carnival and pumpkin “patch” (or as I say, pumpkin staging area…). They had a bounce house, bake sale, hot dogs, some farm animals to admire (no petting!) and a pumpkin decorating area. Oh and maze that was muddy but that did not stop The B Man from making several trips through. Good thing he wore his school shoes. Perfect.

Oh and a hay ride that took you around the parking lot for 3 minutes and was well… exciting for little kids who got to sit in a trailer on hay bales. I’m not knocking it, just saying that “hay ride” was stretching it a little.

The weather was quite perfect (despite a little windy) and I kept Baby K in the sling and the boys had a grand time running around and then eating hot dogs and the treats we let them have. They also decorated some pumpkins and cooperated for a few pictures. God bless ’em.

Here are some pics for your viewing pleasure (and mine…)

I told The B Man to hug his brother and told Little G to take his hand out of his mouth. Okay, so they listen better at age 5 than 2. I got it.

Hanging out in the pumpkins on a trailer and givin’ me some smiles!

Okay, fine don’t smile. Still cute though.

  6. Love the photo of all 5 of you! That is just awesome. Glad to see you are finally feeling better – been thinking of you 🙂 You certainly have a gorgeous crew over there.

  15. Hi Elaine

    Your post makes me smile, it is fun filled and uplifting. Such gorgeous photos of your family and the family photo of all five of you is wonderful.

  20. Elaine! Your pictures are wonderful! I think you need a dslr, hon, I can see you’d rock it! 🙂

    All of the kids are so cute & I’m just amazed at how TINY baby K is in that last one – really shows just how little they really are!

  25. So, I haven’t check in on you in a long time. It makes me miss you tooo much. I really missed you when we went to the arboretum on monday. Katelyn looks beautiful and Ben doesn’t look like himself he’s getting so big i makes me want to cry. I love you lots missing you all so much i will call you soon.

  28. I love the boys shirts! Those are great. Those pictures just put me in the Halloween spirit and reminded me that we never got any good fall pictures on accoutn of the snow. GRRRR.

    And you? You do not look like you just had a baby – Go Elaine!

  29. Is it possible that you just had a baby? You look amazing, Elaine.

    Such a gorgeous family too. I had to smile when I saw the “baby’s 1st Halloween” beanie. Darling!

  30. I love the shirts!

    Also, you look fantastic. You can see that you are reveling in your blessings. Your previous post was beautiful too (too lazy to comment a second time).

  38. Adorable pictures! You look beautiful, Elaine!

    I wish those baby slings had been around when my boys were babies. I had a backpack carrier thing, but the sling looks so much more comfortable and you can use them so much earlier.
