Pumpkin Patch

Peyton had her very first visit to the pumpkin patch this weekend! I think that this is what I have been looking forward to most about becoming a parent...all of the fun holiday traditions! Now, I have a legit excuse to participate in fun kiddie things and not look like a total weirdo. Obviously, Peyton had no clue what was going on and did not care about picking out pumpkins, but I had a blast. Let's be honest, this outing was more for me than for her. Don't worry, I took an unnecessary amount of photos to document the occasion.

We joined our friends, The Bush Family, at the pumpkin patch at Mandarin Methodist Church. This was especially fun for me because we used to come to this pumpkin patch when I was a kid and this was actually the church where I was baptized as a baby!

The Bushes come to this pumpkin patch every year for photos and picking out their family pumpkin together. This is definitely a tradition that I want to start with our family too!

MaryAnn and I decided that we want to bring our kids here every year and take a picture of them together so we can see how much they grow over the years. I'm super excited about starting this fun tradition with our friends. Here is the very first Bush-Roche kids photo!

We decided that we all wanted to match for our family photos and for the photos of the kids together. The easiest way to get the boys on board with any type of matching is to make it FSU themed. Plus, everyone looks good in garnet and gold :) Lord knows I have plenty of it in my closet. 

One very happy mommy. I love sharing all these fun holiday traditions with my little girl.

Picking out Peyton's very first pumpkin!

It doesn't matter that my 4 month old can't sit up on her own yet. I was determined to squish her among the pumpkins for a photo. Don't ever doubt the abilities of a mommy on a mission for an adorable photo opportunity. 

How adorable/hilarious is this? I can hardly stand it. 

Thank you to The Bush Family for including us in your fall tradition! We had so much fun and can't wait to do it again together next year!

Hope y'all are having a fabulous fall!
