Pumpkin Patch and Best Friends

 Yesterday we went to Bottom View Farms to pick pumpkins. Reagan and I have been going there every year since she was 1. They have a hay ride out to pick your pumpkins, a train ride (tractor pulling wooden train cars), animals, a huge slide, and a merry-go-round. Halloween is both of the kids favorite holiday. They look forward to this all year. Every year we meet our best friends there and take some amazing pictures of them all together. 

 Getting ready for the hay ride.
 Reagan picked a pretty small pumpkin and thought it was too heavy to carry.
 Grant chose one much bigger and actually carried his.
 Here is a picture of all the little ones together. It is very hard to get them all to look at the camera and/or smile.
 The big girls are not a whole lot better at the looking at camera thing. They all sure are cute though.
 Here they are trying to get a horse to come over to them.
 Grant thought this was funny and I thought it was funny when he first tried to put his head in the hand hole.
 I love Sophie's smile and so does Grant.
 Grant always wants to hold Sophie's hand. She doesn't always let him, but when she wants to she yells "hold my hand" at him. And he does. He loves her so much. He calls her "my Sophie."
 Every year we do pictures on this tire. Here they all are minus Jackson because he wouldn't stand here long enough for one.
 And for the third year in the row, here is a picture of the big girls on the tire.
 Grant and his girls. I can't believe they are all looking and smiling at the camera! It is a pumpkin patch miracle.
 How cute are my kids? They look so sweet here, not so much on the way home when they were screaming though.
 Grant is so happy to finally have another boy in the group. Almost 3 years of being surrounded by girls and now he can't wait for Jackson to be able to play rough with him. He still calls Jackson and baby and always wants to pet, hug, or hold him.
 All in all, it was a great trip and one of our favorite places. And now they can't wait to go back next year.
