Pumpkins, Cookies & More Pumpkins

Last Friday afternoon, Jaxson's class had a fieldtrip to the pumpkin patch.  It was lots of fun.  Those kids are lots of fun!  It's even more fun when you know who the kids are & they know you back, "Hey! Jaxson's Mom! "

In our little group was Jaxson & his friend Eston.


After a little ride, they dropped us off at the little pumpkin patch.  The kids were told that they could only pick what they could carry.


-I swear I told him to look at the camera-


He found the perfect round pumpkin.



After pumpkin picking, we headed into the courtyard where they had a whole bunch of fun activities.  My favorites were the slides (yes, I went down them all with Jaxson).




Saturday afternoon after soccer, Paul came over with the boys.  Paul & James worked on the car, and I entertained the kids with some cookie decorating while I watched conference.  The kids had fun!




Sunday morning we woke up to seeing our pumpkin patch raided, and pumpkin's smashed up & down the street.  James & I were upset to say the least; we've worked hard on growing those pumpkins.  The boys & I headed outside and performed a pumpkin rescue; James called the cops to inform them of the incident.







  
The one bright spot to the morning though was the yummy brunch that I made.  Orange Juice, Sausages, Blueberry Crumb Cake & Yogurt.  To say that James & I consumed that entire cake in almost a day....would not be a joke.


Oh yes...and Conference was wonderful :)
