Sleepy Girl

This girl can fall asleep anywhere....anytime, anyplace. Her thumb is her built in binky so she is good to go! Wish I could go to sleep that easy!

Pumpkin patch

If you look close here you can see Levi genuinely trying to take a bite out of his pumpkin.

Going through the corn maze

Saturday we took five of the kids to the local pumpkin patch. For a few of the kiddos, this was their first time there. After finding our way through the hay and corn maze (after hitting a few dead ends) we came upon the pumpkin patch. The kids had so much fun picking out their own pumpkin and can't wait to carve them. The three little ones picked out really, really small pumpkins which we have no hope of carving. They will make for cute decorations though.
