the pumpkin wagon (it's tradition!)

^King of the pumpkin patch!^
I absolutely LOVE Kentucky in the fall. I know I've said it a thousand times, but you can probably bet that I'll say it a thousand more as long as we live here...because Kentucky falls just cannot be beat. Seriously.

The warm temps, the changing leaves...just everything!

And now that we've lived in Elizabethtown for the past few years, we've been able to do some of the same fun fall traditions every year that we all look forward to. One of these traditions is hitting up ALL the pumpkin patches around us, because there are so many good ones!!

Our favorite, The Pumpkin Wagon, is just minutes away from our house, and the kids love it! Here are the boys at The Pumpkin Wagon's photo spot, over the last FOUR years:

^2017^
^2016^
Can you believe how much they've grown up?? It's killing me!! But also, I love it. I love seeing more and more of their personalities emerge as they get older...but then I also kind of want them to stay toddlers until the end of time. (Motherhood is crazy like that.)

Speaking of babies...I can't believe that next year they will have a little sister with them on that bench. Holy cow.
^I was 22 weeks in this photo, and baby girl was the size of a spaghetti squash!^
^"Momma! I siiiiiiiide!"^
^Cute brothers number 1 & number 4^
^Cute brothers 2 & 3^
^I thought my bump was so big in this photo...and now I'm 30 weeks and I'm like WHOA. Jk. haha!^
^JUMP!^
Okay...here are another couple of comparison photo. Because you know I can't resist!!
^This year, 2019^
^Last year, 2018^

And here are some of my Brighton boy. Because at least for the next couple of months, he's my baby.
^2019, age 2.5^
^2018, age 1.5^
^2017, age 7 months^
I mean, could you just die?? They really do grow at lightening speed. It's nuts!!
Anywho...after they played for a bit, they each picked a pumpkin to take home.

It's always so cute watching them choose!
^Not sure how he's a teenager, but holy cow^
 
^Proud pumpkin owners^
The week of Halloween, we came back to The Pumpkin Wagon to pick some bigger pumpkins to carve for family night! It was the last pumpkin patch day of the season, and it was perfect. It was like 72 degrees and sunny, and the kids just played their little hearts out. 
^Literally CANNOT HANDLE HIM! So freaking cute.^
^"Hey mom, take a picture of me like this."^
^"How's this one, mom? Is it perfect??"^
 
^Brighton wanted to take this wagon home, but he settled for a pumpkin instead! Haha^
^Cutest bunch of boys^
And then...

L E A V E S ! ! ! 
^The BEST.^
We love The Pumpkin Wagon so much, and it was so much fun to go there this fall. 

I can't wait to see the boys introduce it to baby sister next year!!
