Alice in Pumpkinland

So, most every year we head up to my parents' house and go to the pumpkin patch, although last year we went to the pumpkin patch down the street from my house. So, this year was no different. We headed up to my parents' to meet them and my sister at Craven farms, just outside of Monroe. The theme of their maze was Alice in Pumpkinland. It was great. Well, I'm sure you can imagine I have a ton of pictures. We also went with a friend of mine from high school, Chad and his two kids. His wife Margo had to study for school and was very happy for the peace and quiet for studying. So here are some pictures of our trip. There are a lot of them. Enjoy.

Here's Addie in the tree in front of my parents' house. She insisted on this silly face before the cute one below. Crazy girl.

We tried to get a picture of both of them but Addie did not want anything to do with it.I took about 6 pictures of this. I always had one of them looking cute and smiling so since this is the only picture where they are both doing the same thing I went with it, even if it is funny faces. They were facing the sun though.Ethan is always trying to help out his baby sister.Addie, Alisha and my dad. Love it!!Sweet Clover girl stopped running for half a second for a pictureOne of many tacklesEthan and Calvin showing off their mud!!Ethan loves the mud. He kept "accidentally" tripping
