Pumpkin Patch

We surprised our kids with an unexpected trip to the Pumpkin Patch at Lumbardi Ranch. We had a wonderful time picking out pumpkins, wondering through the corn maze, going on a train ride and Emma Grace was brave enough to enter the petting zoo.

On our way to the Pumpkin Patch Anna Clair noticed the moon. She said, "Daddy, I see the moon but he doesn't have his light on." How cute!! We thank the Lord for our precious children!

Beautiful. This was in early October.

Time to pick out our pumpkin!

My 2 favorite guys!!

Noah and I went into the Corn Maze!! We had such a great time. The goal was to get through the maze and find all the animals that were hidden. We had a list of 7. We ended up finding only 5 but had a great time :)

Daddy and Anna Clair took the train ride.

Emma Grace has a love for animals. This sheep wasn't feeling well and Emma Grace was concerned. She loved it!!!

My sweet girls.

Punishment for Criminals

Tonight Emma Grace told us that, "in the old days the criminals that lied or stole stuff had their hands cut off and awful stuff happened to them - some of them were put to death!!" Jason replied, "So what do we do to criminals today?" Emma Grace said, "they get SPANKED!"

The Birth Right

Jason is flying to Mississippi today and visit with his grandfather who isn't doing well. At lunch today Emma Grace asked Jason, "So, is Granddaddy gonna give you the birth right?" Noah says, "No, Emma Grace that goes to one of his children and it will be grandma for sure!" How funny!!

On a serious note, please pray for Jason's granddaddy and grandmother. It's not easy being in their late 80's with failing health. Pray for Jason to be an encouragement them and spend quality time with them this week. I'd really like it if we wouldn't have an earthquake while he is away :)
