The Pumpkin Patch

It was a BEAUTIFUL day in Evansville today and a perfect day to visit the pumpkin patch!

Lawson's class from his school was going and they invited us to meet them there, wasn't that nice? 

I was excited for him to see his friends and teachers again!

We visited Goebel Farms and it was such a treat for these little people.  There were pumpkins, gourds, squash, mums, corn, corn stalks, straw, and more fruits that I'd never heard of. 

It was a really nice place!

Below are pictures of a few of his little friends...

Here is Mr. Oliver

And Lincoln...

This is one of my favorites of the day... there were a few tractors there and you can guess who found them first!  I don't think the others even noticed them until we got there.

Here he and Sophia are hanging on the tractor wheel!

A quick shot of the three of us!

Lawson and Conner

The wagons were a big hit!

And so was the slide!

I couldn't believe how brave they were - including Lawson!

It was three levels up and then down!  I believe Lawson was the only one who went down on his tummy!  His comment: "That was fun, mommy!"

And lastly... I'm pretty sure that this three-wheeler was to be OFF-LIMITS.  However, once Lawson spotted it, it was all I could do to keep him away from it.  Finally, after about five minutes, I looked around, saw no one, so I quickly popped him up on there. 

A little bit of rebel in mom = priceless smile! :) 

Since having kids, I more and more find myself asking the question, "what's the big deal?"  That's what I thought today... it's sitting right here... kids are everywhere... there is no key, and I am right here... if someone comes over, I will take him off! 

It was worth the smile!
