The Pumpkin Patch

The last weekend of September, we drove to Spokane to see family & friends!  We had hardly spent any time there since Liam was born, so there were plenty of people to still meet!  Plus, I really wanted to go to Green Bluff to check out a pumpkin patch and pick up some freshly made cider.  I know this was a little early to be hitting the pumpkin patch, but I knew our October was busy so this was really the only weekend that worked!  Going early actually paid off too; it wasn't that crowded and I found one of the rare & coveted white pumpkins!

My family's annual trip to Green Bluff was one of my favorite fall activities!  I loved the experience of picking apples, getting pumpkins right off the vine, and enjoying some fresh apple cider & caramel apples.  Even when I lived in Seattle for college, I always drove home for a trip to Green Bluff each year.  I have really missed this place over the last four years while we have lived too far away.  This year, I was so excited to bring Liam with me!  He's obviously too young to remember it, but he loves being outside and new sights; so, he enjoyed the little things!  Jon, Shalan, & Kanyon joined us for the adventure; so fun to have the cousins together!

We finished off our wonderful day with dinner with my other brother's family!  This was the 1st time Liam & Hadley had a chance to meet.  While neither one looks very happy in this picture, they loved each other! :-)  We had such a fun evening together; I love having little one's practically the same age.
