Rule #88: Don't forget mom's favorite season

The best season of the year is finally here! It took it's sweet time getting here too. (I was getting pretty tired of 90 degree weather in September.) But now that it's here I'm trying to soak in as much as possible before the baby comes and I'm more or less confined to the indoors.

We met up with the Dalys at the Pumpkin Patch this weekend to bring in the fall. Evan was really excited to meet up with his cousins. He loves that Sanders will play his favorite game with him. "big circles". Pretty much they just run around each other, with Evan saying "big circles" over and over. It's a riot to watch.
There was a haybale maze for the kids, and then everyone got to pick out their own pumpkins. Karaia was all about picking out pumpkins for everyone in her family. Which was difficult to do. There were so many "perfect" pumpkins to choose from. It was a great time. We even picked up a tiny pumpkin to represent the new son we will have by halloween. :) Welcome Fall!

This was an attempt to get all three boys looking at the camera. Yeah, it worked really well. :)

That picture of Evan on the hay bales turned out amazing.

Thanks for switching your plans and meeting up with us!

What fun! We can't seem to find a good pumpkin patch here that doesn't cost over $50 for our whole family to go to. I think Brenner would have liked the "Big circles" game.
