The Pumpkin Patch

Last Thursday Miss Nora invited us to go to the pumpkin patch with her preschool class. It was so fun and of course when done Miss Nora style was not just a visit to the pumpkin patch, but an adventure in the pumpkin patch. We wandered through the patch. Miss Nora found a great spot, spread a blanket and read the kids some Halloween stories. The kids played hokie-pokie around a pumpkin, jump over the pumpkin, and ring around a pumpkin. Then they went on a pumpkin hunt to find their own little pumpkin with their name on it (even Miles got one). After a lap around the patch (to run of some energy) everyone was rewarded with pumpkin chocolate chip cookies! It was a hit! We love you Miss Nora and can't wait for the next field trip. Here are some cute shots of the kiddos.

Hey--they might not be smiling, but at least they are both looking at the camera (kind of).

Those are so cute. This is why I need kids. So I can take them to a pumpkin patch for story time! I just posted a link on my blog to our adoption profile. You can check it out!
