Every year we head out to Stoney Ridge and spend the day looking at animals, exploring the pumpkin patch, and having fun. This year we even got to go in the corn maze since it wasn't as muddy as previous years. My grandma and papa from Spokane also decided to come over for the weekend to go with us. Whew, so much fun packed into one day! Watch out, lots of pictures to come and as you can tell I was often too busy and excited to look at the camera.
Sam is a good story teller

I'll smile when I see the mini-donuts dad's been talking about since we got up this morning

Is this official? One side looks higher
Flashback two yearsThese bunnies (they're in there, I swear) were my favorite thing I saw all day

It was such a nice day, I think every family in Bellingham was out at the patch today. We ran into my friends Maddie and Ava and got this picture together

I love my friend Ava

See

Can you tell we're related? Fingers in mouth, looking at the same something or other

Getting everyone still in one place is rare, gotta take advantage of those opportunities.

Not as bouncy as my ball at home

This one is perfect - let's take it home

Me and Maggie trying to see - wow, the sun was bright

This apple is huge - it might take me all day to eat

Sam - bring your apple and let's go check out the corn maze

This is mom's favorite pic of the whole day - and believe me, there were a lot of them

Still working on my apple - at least I won't be hungry if we get lost in this maze

Me, Momma and my apple in the maze

Geez Sam, you'd think you were union or something. Can I get a hand?
