On Sunday Simeon and I gathered up all of our loyal friends, pulled on our rain coats and hiking books and headed out to the farm. Lakeview Farm, that is. We got lost in the corn maze (damn you, flower!), enjoyed some lovely fall treats, and picked out our very own pumpkins at the pumpkin patch. Oh and don’t forget about the boat ride across the lake and the train ride back!
We didn’t let a little rain stop us from enjoying one of my favorite activites of the year. For me, the fabulous fall festivities bring friends and family closer together and allows everyone to be a kid again. If that doesn’t sound like a perfect day, I don’t know what does.
Then (almost) everyone headed back to our house where I was simmering a huge pot of chili and baking corn bread to warm everyone up from the inside out. Once we were fed (and dry again) we set forth on carving our pumpkin masterpieces.

Dude, that was fun! Thanks for inviting us! I have sad news though, our pumpkins have been infested by ants and we might have to throw them out long before halloween. Have you ever had that problem?
could you look any cuter?!?!?
I had so much fun that day, so glad we were able to make it. Your friends are always so fun to meet and be with. Wish we could have come for eats, but we too were over booked (well Jeff was). Thanks again!
Hey! Those are great pics! That was so fun. Sorry we couldn’t make it to your house. I overbooked us – oops! Since I only have Mitch on Sundays I tend to plan too much! Anyway, could you please e-mail me the pic of my family so I can print a copy. That is the BEST picture of all three of us! Thanks!
look at how cute you are in the pumpkin patch 🙂 your hair is sooo long! ahhh the wonders of prenatal vitamins.
