Alaric's First Field Trip and Fall Photos

Alaric had his first field trip today to the Pumpkin patch! It was so fun. Brian took the day off work to help me since every child in the 2's class must have a parent with them and I had Amara too. The place was great. It was about 15 minutes away just outside of DeLand. It was a private residence that turned their machine sheds into an indoor hay bale maze and a pumpkin and gourd shopping center. They have a real corn maze out in the fields and a huge pick your own pumpkin field. They have play structures for the kids and lots of areas to take pictures. We had so much fun and the kids did great.

Alaric has a crush on the big sister of his classmate Kelton. This is Emmerson. She's an older woman of 5 and adores Alaric.

Amara was precious. She hung out in Daddy's front pack and watched all the activity.
Amara just sat still on the hay bales and let me shoot away!
Alaric is still practicing his holding skills but is doing well.

We spread out blankets and had snack! Alaric brought snack today and was so proud. After we said our "Good is Great, God is Good" prayer, everyone got organic fruit strips, two kinds of goldfish, and juice boxes. All the kids thanked Alaric and he got to say " Your Welcome".
