Pumpkins, Goats and Sunshine


















What a beautiful fall day here in central Iowa! Our mom's group made the trek to Howell's Pumpkin Patch today for a great time! We were a small group today but the kids were so incredibly good and you just couldn't have asked for a better day to go. We fed the goats and looked at the other animals, road the tractor pulled wagon out to the pumpkin patch and picked out our perfect orange prizes. Amy sent along some great advice. She tells her girls, "If you can lift it yourself, you can buy it." Takes care of the issue of picking out the 50 pound pumpkin! Howell's was a great set up. One piece of advice, if you have a larger group, call ahead and make a reservation. There were tons of school kids there! They also have a corn maze, play area, gift shop and it was pretty easy to find. Enjoy the pics!
