The highlight of the third trip to the pumpkin patch was the fruit snacks. We met our twin friends Ian and Abbie and their older sister, Ellie in the hay bale maze at the farm. The kids all worked up quite an appetite wandering through the maze, and since they were momentarily still while eating, I snapped this group photo.

| Emily and Addison had their good ol' dried fruit strips, but the Kadlecek kids had something the girls had never seen before...freeze dried fruit. Luckily, these kids are the sharing type and the freeze dried deliciousness was sampled by all |
 |
| Emily asks Ian for more, but he's already shared plenty and is hanging onto that apple! |
 |
| Big Sis Ellie to the rescue, shares with little Em |
 |
| I just love this picture because Ellie is so happy to have shared her snack! |
 |
| Ian flees the scene before Emily can start asking for more |
Before heading home, we burned off some energy in the bouncy castle. Emily was not into being bounced around by big kids at all and only lasted a few seconds before practically jumping right back out into my arms. Addison, on the other hand, couldn't get enough. I actually had to crawl up in there to get her out when it was time to go!

| Bounce! |

| Addie has had a way of adopting grandmothers since she was able to reach her arms out to people. There was a grandma over here watching her grandson, and Addison kept coming up to the mesh and giving the grandma the biggest grins. On a side note, last week Addie adopted her first grandpa, climbing up into his lap at the mall play area. |
We will definitely be visiting Rock Creek Farm next year for our fall outdoor entertainment. And we promise that we'll actually buy one of your pumpkins next year!
I would have kept going back too! Dirt, animals, lots of kids? YES PLEASE!
