Our day at the Pumpkin Patch

Saturday afternoon we headed to Honeysuckle Hill Farms, N of Nashville, to spend the afternoon!  It was our October sorority social.  Nothing says fall like a family outing to the patch.  Jeff went back to work after the run so it was just me and the boys and we met up with Jenn and Benny, Suzi with RJ and Xander and Becky. 

Matt ran to check out the Monster Rippler slide when we first arrivedIMG_5058 s

What a great afternoon spent enjoying the boys and the outdoors!  A gorgeous drive to Springfield and a quiet drive home with both my boys asleep!  We came home to dad cooking a pot of chili and it was the best way to end the day spent in the cold air!
