Pumpkin Patch Expedition





A beautiful October Saturday--a perfect day for our annual outing to Pa's Pumpkin Patch down in Long Beach. The kids wanted to wear their Halloween costumes, which was nice for Amy, as alas, she'll have class on the evening of Oct. 31, and the wicked wizard that is her professor ain't cancelling. So she got to see the kids all decked out in a relatively festive setting. As you can see, Ben's a Jedi and Lauren is Dorothy; she got the idea a couple weeks ago after I told her the whole story during a long car ride. (As for the movie, they both watched Wizard of Oz for the first time last night.) At the Patch, the kids (reluctantly, sometimes petulantly) posed for photos, rode some rides, picked some pumpkins. Now, it's off to Ben's soccer game, a birthday party, and get-together with friends. A busy--but fun--Saturday. More later!

Love, The Jensens
