We woke up this morning to a brisk, sunny 35 degrees.
Brrrr! I finally have some time to catch up on the blog. So much has happened, and again, I don't always take pictures. So you'll just have to read about the
Bramell family adventures.
The first weekend in October, Grammy and Nanny came for a visit. The weather was perfect for an afternoon at the pumpkin patch! The kids all ran around, we took a hayride around the farm and picked our own pumpkins to bring home. We like the
McGarrah's Farm in Pea Ridge; this was our second time there. We tried a different one last year but I didn't like it as well.

Becca loved riding on the mule train.

All the kids loved playing in the hay tunnel. What a great, fun idea!

Evan & Carley weren't sure what to think about hay. They both touched it and looked confused.

Two cool dudes. You can see the pumpkin patch behind them.

Carley on the hayride through the farm. We all enjoyed the ride and the stories about the haunted farm.

Big girl just wanted to climb, climb, climb. Such a warm day that her face was red like her shirt!
After wearing the kids out at the farm, we topped it off with a yummy dinner at Monte Ne Chicken. We don't go there often, but when we do, we wonder why we don't go more!
