Maddie’s first “field trip”

Maddie’s class at school took their first field trip down the street to the “pumpkin patch.” It is really just another church that is selling pumpkins. The parents had to go to do some man-on-man coverage of the kiddos so they didn’t wander too freely. This is the same pumpkin patch where we did Maddie’s little photo shoot a little while ago.

They put all the kiddos in the stroller and off we went.  This buggy is a six seater that Maddie loves to ride in next to her buddy Jake. She talks about him all the time.


Once we got there Maddie headed straight for the scarecrows – go figure. We had a difficult time trying to find pumpkins we liked because Maddie did not want one that was dirty. We compromised and I told her I would wash them when I got home.



I also got some really cute pictures of Maddie and Jake sitting together – but I’m going to check with Jake’s mom to see if she minds that I post them. Maddie won him over by shoving goldfish in his mouth – therefore he kept his seat next to her. It was so cute to see all these little kiddos wandering around and climbing on pumpkins – we sure are lucky to have found such a great school with sweet, caring teachers!


Oh, and the clean pumpkins . . .
