Trip to the Pumpkin Patch

We decided to venture out this weekend and drove down to Eau Claire to stay with my Aunt and Uncle. The kids did alright on the way down. They were very excited to be there and to play with my cousins. On Saturday we went to a pumpkin patch/ apple orchard where they got to go on a hay (apple wagon) ride, jump in a bouncy thing and walk through a corn maze. Andrew had a great time in the corn maze with Daddy and Madelyn was off having fun with Papa and the big kids.

We were having a good time and then the breakdowns started to happen. Emily was first, she wanted to be done and she let us know by screaming and screaming. Then it was Madelyn's turn, screaming like she was being beaten. And then there was our sweet little Andrew very content watching his movie while his sister flipped out. So our trip took a turn down hill. Emily was up 10 times that night. Yes, I will say it again 10 TIMES! So we went to church and breakfast the next morning (Thank goodness for the crying room) and then headed home. And we won't talk about how the drive home was. So to say the least will not be taking any trips for a long time!!!

But we still had a good time, the kids thought it was great staying at Auntie Jeanne and Uncle Rick's.
