Pumpkin Patch

We took a trip to Schilter Farms yesterday to enjoy the pumpkin patch and petting zoo! We had a great time. It would have been fun if it was just Mark, MJ and I, but what really made the day super special was having Abu, Papa, Uncle Boo, Auntie Dawn and Katie there too! It was so fun to all be together again, and know that no one will be getting on an airplane to go home! It was super fun to watch Katie and MJ. She knows his name, and constantly throughout the day was saying "Markus". She was hugging and kissing him and helping him drink from his sippy cup. I know it delighted my parents to no end to see their grandbabies playing together and to see their kids enjoying their families together. At dinner we realized that our family dynamics really have changed- there probably won't be another quiet adult meal for a LONG time... but the kind we enjoyed last night, with giggly, loud kids, laughter and sharing were better than any we shared before.

PS- The photo of the three of us plus the two other kids... while we were taking our family photo, these two kids came over and just sat down and smiled at the camera! Too cute!
