i picked a pumpkin, and i liked it

we picked the perfect afternoon to go to the pumpkin patch with our small group. say picked the perfect pumpkin patch ten times fast. the weather was beautiful, and the kids had a lot of fun. we got to see two college-aged guys terrorize piglets, pet goats and mini horses, go in a corn maze (which i opted out of after my last experience in one), take a hay ride, and "pick" pumpkins. the pumpkin options that they had out in the field were a little lacking in size. they always seemed so much bigger when i was younger. we got to carve our pumpkins which i haven't done in years, and share pizza while snacking on freshly baked cinnamon pumpkin seeds. all around, an excellent day. the johnson children are some of the most beautiful well-behaved kids i know. and super helpful:)

love,
