Finley and Fam at the Pumpkin Patch!

Finley and I are having a fine time relaxing over the MEA break, so I finally have some time to update the blog. Last weekend, Grandma and Grandpa B. met Megan, Phil, Sadie, and us at the pumpkin patch/apple farm in Elko. Finley fell in love with all the pumpkins and kept sitting on them with a huge smile on her face. They had little wagons to haul your pumpkins in and Sadie and Finley had a blast riding while Grandpa pulled them. We got to take a wagon ride behind a tractor all through the apple orchard and looked at the ducks, cow, chickens, and rabbit. Too bad we didn't have the wagon when we decided to go in the corn maze, though. The thing was a mile and a half long (we didn't know that before going in) and after a half hour (at least) of wandering and getting no where, Megan and Sadie both got a little nervous, while Finley just got downright ornery. It was pretty funny, though. We actually ended up sneaking out the side just before getting to the end because we were starting to think we might be lost in there forever! It was abnormally warm for a day in October - around 80 - so we were all pretty sweaty when we made it out. For all our hard work, we rewarded ourselves with homemade apple pie and ice cream. We all crashed hard that night - and amazingly, didn't dream about corn!
