Pun-Kin Patch

FALL! My most favorite season. Today we went to a local pumpkin patch to let the girls choose their very own pumpkins. We may actually carve one this year...yes, a very big step for me. We went 3 years ago as well. I included some pictures from that trip. I can't believe how much the girls have changed in three short years! I certainly love being their mom!
Raychel's pick in 2006.
I love this!

Nana and Leah.

Anna and me. This year Anna and Leah stayed awake for the whole thing!

Poor girl! Raychel had stuck her finger in the chicken wire and can you guess what happened? Yup, a nice chomp on that baby finger. Obviously, my dad was distraught.

This is my girl!

Raychel and her hero.

Checking out the bunnies.


May and Anna


Anna's thinking: "Little goat, let me just skim the top of your nasty head with my two fingers so my mom can take a picture."

Picks form the ice cream truck. Look how creepy that Dora Popsicle is!

I love my girl. Leah seriously gets in a trance when she eats ice cream. She just stares off into space and enjoys every...last...bite.

This was a proud moment for the Roylances. Raychel picked up this caterpillar all on her own! Believe me, that's a big step. Now if we can get her to stop having full blown anxiety attacks when she sees a bee...

CHUG! CHUG! CHUG!

Raychel could not WAIT to show Grant what she found. Grant was so excited and proud. His attention made her feel like a million bucks.

Daddy and his favorite girls.

On the hayride...ready to search for the perfect pumpkin.

I handed the camera over to James, so I could help the girls pick their pumpkins. There were like 23 pictures of me bending over. Classic.

Anna and Leah wanted a small one. Leah found hers first.

We had to search a little longer for Raychel's pumpkin. Does anyone know what those sick bugs are called that crawl all over the pumpkins?

Group shot. After looking through these pictures, I think it's time to chop my hair off again. Feelings?

Cute pictures! I love that pumpkin patch. Ours has gone out of business here so I don't know where we'll go this year. ;o(

Yes, of course you should cut your hair! I am loving my short hair.... So easy.

Ali your short hair is your signature look, especially when its dark, its how I always think of you. I think it would look good no matter what, but I think short is definitely your style.

Oh how I love little kids at pumpkin patches, it looks like you guys had a great time. This is the best time of the year. What are the girls going to be for halloween?

What fun! Looking at these pictures made me kinda sad though...I really wish we could have been there with you. I miss my sissy and my girls! Love you!

PS. You know I'm all about short hair :)
