Pumpkin Patch

Sunday night, and we're back hanging out on the couch. We seemed to cram all of our activities into today rather than spread them over the whole weekend, and so we're a pretty tired bunch right now. Earlier we had to wake Sawyer up from her nap just so she'd go back to bed at a semi-normal time tonight...and she was not pleased. So anyway, today we hit up brunch at a local cafe, and then busted out to the suburbs to meet up with some friends and go to a local pumpkin patch/zoo. Had SUCH a great time there. It was the perfect size for both girls who got to see a bunch of farm animals - Sawyer moo'd at almost all of them - played with the pumpkins, and just walked around in general. We were especially lucky because our friend Jon is an amazing photographer and was taking pics of Sawyer, and the three of us. We'll share them when we get them, but Mark and I are pretty excited. I got to use his camera to take a few shots of their family - one of them anyway - and I WANT one...it takes great pictures. In the meantime, we'll share some pics that we took. Here's Mark dazzling the camera...

Kind of amazed by her pumpkin...

Sadly, we never ended up buying our pumpkins while we were there because it was getting a little late and we had two more stops. We ended up visiting some other friends who live near the pumpkin patch, and then heading to a very late lunch. So no pumpkins to show for our trip to the patch...but lots of good times and pictures.
