Fall Fun

This year was our best trip to the Pumpkin Patch. Maybe it was Jack loving the train so much or Audrey testing her tractor driving skills. Or, perhaps, it was letting the kids run like wild maniacs and burn off some energy. Most of all, though, it was knowing how truly lucky we are that this was one of many fun days with the kids. Most people know that we tried for a long time to have children, a journey that was sometimes painful. Today was one of those days that reminded us that the rough road resulted in the most perfect ending.

That said, after returning home, Jack once again demonstrated his houdini skills by climbing out of his crib! So....we are ending our perfect day by putting together two new toddler beds (thank you Marion, Trevor, Evan, and Leo!). Now let's just hope that the kids will actually *sleep* in them!
