Preschool trip to the Pumpkin Patch

Here are some photos from Emily's class trip to the pumpkin patch last week! It was a ball, we had beautiful weather. The kids took a tractor ride out around the patch, picked out pumpkins, gourds, and pulled an ear of corn off the stalk. We even got a class picture out of the deal! See Em's teacher Shawna in the middle!

Mashed Potatoes


We recently discovered Mason's love of mashed potatoes. Emily wouldn't get within 10 feet of them at his age, so we never really made them. Last month, with our potato harvest in full swing, Ryan whipped some up. Mason loved them so much, he really could not get enough. Last night, they made an appearance again, and I had to get out the camera. Keep in mind, all of these pictures were taken before we even sat down at the table! As soon as he hears the kitchenaid, he comes running...."num nums! nums nums! Rrrrrrrrrrrr........." (as in the sound of the mixer...)! Love this age. And, notice, even big sis gives the taters a try.
