Fun in the patch with COUSINS!!!

Mabey's Pumpkin Patch--
We had the great opportunity of spending most of October in my families pumpkin patch. The weather was great and the kids had SOOOO much fun. This is the patch. Here is Daphne, she is "King of the World." She would climb up and say that over and over again. Ryker would just play with the straw.

Here we are just after we loaded the wagon to take into the patch. Most of the people went out in the field with the wagons to pick their pumpkins. We planted 5 acres of pumpkins this year.

I think the kids could ride in the wagons all day. They loved the "bumpy ride."

Madison and Daphne
At first they would run from one end of the field to the other. Their were so many things for them to explore.

The first wagon ride of the year. Daphne with some of her cousins. Daphne had a very traumatic experience that made it hard for her to get back on. While they were out one of the pumpkins fell off. Who knows why that was so disturbing for her but it was. We would have to do a lot of convincing to get her back on the wagon after that.

Pretending to drive the tractor. This was another favorite especially for Daphne, Jacob and Madison. We got grease on many outfits as they would make their way to the seat. They could climb on and off by themselves.

Playing on the big pile of pumpkins. I love taking pictures with the kids sitting on these big piles after we have just loaded the wagon. They were climbing all over the place.

We LOVED the weather this year. It was so nice to be able to be in the patch without big coats all the time. Here are the kids playing at dusk. They would walk around holding hands all the time.

Daphne, Jacob and Madison hugging a pumpkin. They wanted their picture with many pumpkins that night.

The two boy grand kids that live in Utah. We sure do miss our cousins that live away.
