After celebrating my nephew, Jackson's, birthday at my Dad's cabin we took our now annual trip to the Pumpkin Patch in Riceville.  It is a really nice place to go and I think we all enjoyed ourselves even though Pa and Marina were stung by yellow jackets.  The kids managed to make it through the Corn Maze by themselves. (We didn't notice that the instructions stated that children were not supposed to go through the maze without an adult...Oops)  The kids really enjoyed the petting zoo and then we took the hayride out to the Pumpkin Patch. Everyone was able to find the perfect pumpkin before it was time to leave.  I always enjoy this trip and hope that we continue it for a long long time.
