Pumpkin Patch

On Tuesday night I went to church and helped unload 1,500 hundred pumpkins for our church pumpkin patch. It was hard work and really fun at the same time. The church band played and there were about 75 people there working in big assembly lines unloading the pumpkins from a semi. The pumpkins came from a Navajo reservation in New Mexico and all profits go to build a house for a poor family in Mexico. It felt really great to be part of something that would make a huge difference in the lives of one family.

I volunteered to work the pumpkin patch for a few hours today and invited my CA moms group to meet there. Jared and Laine got to run through the pumpkin patch and play with their friends. I got some adorable pictures of Laine and her best buddy Kamryn. The weather was really mild and it definitely felt like Fall.
