Yesterday we took a "family fun day" and went to a local pumpkin patch with the Gardners. Hilgers is only a few miles from our house and they do it up right. The kids got to hear stories told by a mechanical giant, explore corn mazes, climb giant haystacks, and ride a zipline, rope swings and ponies. That was BEFORE the kettle corn and cotton candy. The only downside - it was unseasonably warm out yesterday - in the middle 80's. So ... while they all looked adorable in their Halloween attire ... they were sweating it. So were we actually. Thanks to Jen and Troy for introducing us to yet another Fort Wayne tradition.

I'm so proud of you ~ your finding all of the fun Ft Wayne traditions! You are truly becoming a Ft Wayne girl ~ the Vera bags, going to Hilgers ~ you go girl! Strawberry picking at Hilgers is a lot of fun as well:) The kids look just precious and it looks like you all had a wonderful day!
We were there on Saturday. :) It was lovely weather... but that was about all that was lovely about the trip. :) Grant had a meltdown and we had to leave after about a half hour. Pretty expensive 1/2 hour don't you think????? Haha! Glad you guys had fun though. :)
