Pumpkin Patch

Pumpkins pumpkins every where!!

Today was a bit busy, but it was a good day, and ended with everyone in bed early! Well, everyone but Mommy!

Had to run to the bank to cash a check from school before taking JD to school. Then after we dropped him off so he could learn "E is for Emergency" day, Kaitlyn, Ptolemy and I ran to another bank to make deposits, then to the garage to get the wipers in the van looked at, then ran over to payless to get everyone new schools. Got back to pick up JD from school just in time. :)

Decided we were going all out for today, so we went and got some junk fast food for lunch, and headed up into the mountains to head to the pumpkin patch and check out what leaves are remaining. Leaves were in limited supply as we got a little further into the Adirondack park due to a hard frost last night, but it still was a beautiful ride!

We went to the pumpkin patch first. Let the little ones out and they ran picking out every pumpkin they saw. Kaitlyn was super cute, being her first year getting to do this! JD had a slight issue standing on the farmer's pumpkins and refusing to apologize, he had to sit out for a bit. Evil mommy, I know!! But they got to pick out pumpkins and some Indian Corn, and had a good time just running around. We went to this one last year, and I think it's going to be one of our little traditions. :)

We made it home around 5, had a simple dinner, and everyone crashed shortly after. So much so, that I even crashed on the couch for a little bit, but woke up to get my school work done!

Now to think of what the next fun trip will be. Maybe the zoo? That would be a nice ride this time of year. And I think we'll do the museum next week. Possibly the art museum. .... ideas, ideas!
