Pumpkin Patch

The 5 Hills

Buddies: Robert and Ethan
Our latest "teaching field trip" for the kids included a trip to our favorite local fruit farm called "The Fruit and Berry Patch." This time we grabbed our good friends Robert and Amy to go with us. We let the boys pick out their own pumpkins and watch as they so comically carried them to the van. But Hannah got to ride on my shoulders this year because there were too many vines to trip over. Andrew got so tangled up in a vine that he had to yell for Jason to come get him out. The sweetest part about the night happened as we dropped the Townsends off at their home. Ethan yelled out of the van to Robert, "Bye Robert! My friend!" He really loves Robert. But what child doesn't? Even Hannah will run over to play with Robert and let him hold her in his lap. Now that's a miracle! Here are few shots we got before the sun set. We didn't get one of Amy that night before the camera battery died so here's my favorite picture of them. It was their engagement picture.
