Pumpkin Patch!

(We are in BYU shirts because there is a game today - and we are 'Cougars'!)
Today we went to Apple Annie's. About an hour away from our house, but everything is far away from our house, so I guess it is worth the drive if we want to do anything.
We met Diane and Blake with their kids (since they are the ones who told us about this place! And Braxton and Merrick love them!) There was a pancake breakfast at the Apple Orchard from 8:30 - 10:30 and they had pumpkin pancakes with apple cider syrup and home made sausages.....so good!
Then we drove to the farm part of Apple Annie's and got to take a hay ride out to the pumpkin patch and pick out a pumpkin.
Merrick found a nice little one that Merrill got to carry around for him, and Braxton was excited with the one Merrill picked out (he gets the final say since he will be doing the carving on Monday night - for Family Night)
While this was a fun day and all - The big news is that on the way up to Apple Annie's there is a boarder patrol check - and after we drove through - we saw a Mexico plated car with all doors open, panels ripped out, and about 20 bricks of pot sitting on the trunk. It is good to see they are doing something other then slowing down traffic!
