We have never taken the girls to pick out pumpkins. So we decided to take a drive to Bate's Nut farm. They have a huge pumpkin patch, hay rides and a hay maze. On the weekends they have little vendors and food. So it was so hot when we got there we decided to do the hay ride first. That was really fun and the girls really liked it.
Then we did the maze. It so was cute. You have to find all 8 mail boxes and stamp all eight squares. 



So then we walked around and looked at all the vendors and went to the Bate's nut farm store. It was very crowded.
We then walked over to the farm animals and they got to pet the goats. After we made it past the donkeys, goats, sheep, llamas, pigs, chicken, turkeys, emu, geese, ducks.
We headed over to the pumpkin patch.Here are just some of the pictures. 



Right before we were leaving we ran into April and Charity. 

We don't like to carve pumpkins because we don't celebrate or participate in Halloween things so we found the cutest little kit you stick on the pumpkins.


Happy Harvest Everyone! God bless you all.

Grandma and Grandpa Van Lant celebrated their 60th wedding anniversary. Wow what a major achievement these days. It was held at Kevin and Kimberly's house in Naples. They had a really good Taco lady come and prepare street tacos. 

Then there was a really neat video interview of Grandma and Grandpa that they asked them a lot of great questions. Here are some great pictures of the day we all shared. We love you Grandma and Grandpa and I am truly so blessed to have such wonderful, loving and involved Grand parents like you. We love you two so much! You are truly a blessing in our lives. Happy 60th Wedding Anniversary!











We were suppose to spend the night up at Hurkey Creek with Dave and Misty with the county of Riverside's Annual Camping trip. But it was freezing cold so we only went up for the day. But here are some fun pictures of the day. There are a ton more on the smug mug link.



Katelyn won some really cool hot pink sun glasses at one of the kids games. She loved them and wore them all day :) So cute!

The kids all had so much fun together

Even though it was freezing we had a wonderful time!
