pumpkin patch

we went to the red barn in santaquin with friends again this year to the pumpkin patch.  i am loving this tradition, i look forward to it every august, it seems - yes, even when the temps are still in the 90s

 doesn't weston look thrilled to be in the maze with the girls?

 beth had a hard time - she's little and grumpy

 kate trying to tell me it's this way

 running for the finish line

 beth, you're almost there!

 and she's done...

 ever the poser... her daddy trained her well

the girls checked out the tractor

and then the photo op ghosts 

we finished up by looking for the perfect pumpkins...

and then really finished up by snagging too many treats back at the general store: doughnuts and ice cream and squeaky cheese!  oh my!
