In Keeping with Fall Traditions...

...Matthew and I went on a trip just outside of the city, to a Pumpkin Patch farm.  We went as part of an organized homeschool field trip event this year, and Matthew's best buddy (and his family) was there, too.  The boys had a great time:  walking through the 'haunted' scarecrow forest; playing endlessly on the hay bales and the most awesome play structure I've seen in years; picnicking; watching the crazy, climbing goats in the petting zoo; playing with kittens; throwing sticks into a camp fire; wandering through a corn maze perfect for kids their age; even flying way up in the air on a zip line!  It was the perfect fall day to enjoy outside.
