Trip to the pumpkin patch

I had so much fun at the pumpkin patch with my activity days girls, that I decided to take the boys there too. This happened on Thursday but with all the birthday stuff going on, I didn't have time to put the pictures up until now. Anyway, it was the windiest, coldest, most miserable day we could have picked to go on, and they still had a ball.
Liam ready to ride on the cow train. I had to pay to ride the cow train too so I could hold James. I'm glad my hind end wasn't too big to fit in the train car--I was a bit worried!
They had several big astro-jump thingies set up. Zane carried James clear to the top of this one so he could slide down too.
Here comes Ethan!

Again may I say how sad I'll be when Fall is over. We went to get finishing touches for costumes the other night at Target, and had to first pass by all the Christmas stuff. It's as if Thanksgiving doesn't even exist anymore. Now don't get me wrong, I love Christmas as much as the next guy, but I HATE how commercialized it is. I am only two presents away from having all my Christmas shopping done, and then I refuse to go into any more big stores until the end of January. I plan to fully enjoy the rest of my Autumn! (Boy there's a lot of stuff that bugs me! I find the older I get, the more opinionated I get!)

I SOOO agree! It's so sad how Thanksgiving is completely ignore. I loved going back East this year and actually feeling like I celebrated Thanksgiving. I wish they would leave the Christmas stuff down until atleast after Halloween. Time already goes way too fast, no need to speed it up any more.

You ARE old! ;) Not a fan of the commercialism (sp?), BUT I LOVE the music :) I'd listen to it year-round if my conscience would let me. It's truly a sickness.
