For the Journey


Any day spent with you is my favorite day. So today is my new favorite day. ~A.A. Milne

Last weekend Mason, Hannah Kate and I went to the pumpkin patch with Logan and his parents (Seth was working). It was a beautiful autumn day, perfect for a hay ride, picking pumpkins, wandering through a hay maze and enjoying life on the farm.

I think Mason's favorite part about the hayride was actually playing in the hay. He also enjoyed seeing all of the animals along the way, including cows, deer, goats, donkeys and a zedonk. The zedonk was half zebra half donkey. She was brown, and her head looked like a donkey's head, but she had zebra stripes down her body. I later found out she came from Louisiana. Go figure. And then we came to the pumpkin patch.Mason had a really hard time deciding which pumpkin he wanted. He basically grabbed one, dropped it, grabbed another one, dropped it, grabbed yet another one, dropped it . . . until he realized that Logan was heading to the hay maze. So Mason did likewise.They had the best time chasing each other through the maze.

Before we left, we tried getting some more pictures of the kiddies, but you can just imagine how cooperative a 3 year old, 2 year old and 10 month old were! Not very!

We tried and tried, but we never could get Mason and Logan to look at the camera. All they wanted to do was look at each other and laugh. And run. And laugh. And run some more.I tried to get a picture of Mason and Hannah Kate together in the midst of the pumpkins, but that didn't work out either.And this was the best we could do at getting a picture of the three of us together. It's actually pretty good considering . . .
