Olivia's Pumpkin Patch!




Yes, it's that time of year when there are so many pumpkins it's almost overwhelming! But, I was honored to again be allowed to tag along with my niece Olivia (in blue) and her class to the McPhail Farm in Lynden! This year my brother-in-law Mike also went, and Amy was a wonderful mommy-stand in for Olivia's classmate Maleah (who's darling, by the way!). We watched them ride the Train (with the farm dog that HAD to ride too!!), feed the goats and tromp through the field to find the perfect pumpkin. Olivia found hers right off the hay ride, while Maleah had to traverse almost the entire field to find hers! The field full of little pumpkins reminded me of the Great Pumpkin and Linus from the Peanuts! It was a lot of fun as always!!
