Welcoming Fall

Our favorite pumpkin patch, Ford's Farm, is up for sale so this year we had to find a new place to ring in Fall. A blessing in disguise, we headed to Hondo to the Corn Maize and had the best time ever! Loved these signs they had for "Reserved Parking..." We each found one that fit us! Ella bonded with the baby black goat even though we didn't have anything to feed it Avery already in pretend mode - he's ready to be a farmer he said Oh wow, she posed for this picture like we have never seen before! Hand on her hip and all! Hanging on the hay bales I love how Ella puts her arm around my neck and squeezes tight Fun in the "kiddie" area Ella spent a good amount of time on the swings with daddy Our only attempt for a family photo.. Ella wanted to go BACK to the swings And now for the corn maize. This has always been on my bucket list of things to do but night time with flashlights is more of what I've always envisioned. We ended up only going through half of it before breaking for snacks. It spelled "We will never forget" in the corn, very cool. Avery took this picture of mom and dad! Maybe this means you'll be seeing more pics of Wade and I together! The kids having a blast My little "Children of the Corn" An old fashion tractor pull; riding with Ella in an old oil barrel complete with 2x4 wooden seat... ouch! CORN POPPER, oh ya! Headed to the pumpkin patch to find the best one! Our 2 jokesters... they are to peas in a pod when they get in their silly moods. Ella wanted all the "baby ones." We bought 2 for Grandma Trish! She struggled picking this one up but was so proud once she did. She likes to say, "Look at me, I'm strong!" Then Avery had to prove his strength too. What a fantastic day... Happy Fall everyone!
