Today we went to another pumpkin patch in the afternoon. This one was local and just a short drive from our house. We have now gone three years in a row and they still remember us! This is also a Christmas tree farm and we buy our Christmas tree from them too every year.
We had another gorgeous day in Texas and met some of our friends out at the patch. We started with pumpkin painting. Lillian loves to paint and picked a HUGE pumpkin today to decorate with paint. Lydia just watched her sister today. :)
We then went for tattoos! Lydia got her first tat...isn't that a sweet moment for a mom to watch! hee hee She did great getting her tattoo and sat so still...the only time she is ever still! :) Then, Lillian got a tattoo and two more before we left the farm! She loves tattoos and asked me the other day when she could get a permanent one. I told her calmly when she was 18 years old and she said okay. What do you say when you and hubby both have one? :)
Then, we hopped in the hay ride line and waited and waited and waited! That was one long line for the hayride, but the kiddos did great. Lydia kept finding new friends and would snack all along the way. Lillian jumped in the hay for a little while and then came back to wait with me. Finally, it was our turn and it was one BUMPY ride! I got knocked off the hay bale onto the floor and my purse followed with everything spilling out. Just another day for the Martin Girls!!!
We finished the afternoon by running through the maze and having duck races. Lillian beat me every time with her rubber duckie! The pumps are so much fun to operate and you have to pump hard to win. But, I was defeated!
What a great weekend for the girls! And mom too!!! Love you all and good night!
