Our yearly tradition continues...
Fun and ice cream in hell, michigan.
And then ON TO THE PUMPKIN PATCH.
The pumpkin patch we go to is a small family farm, not very well known.
We are usually the only ones there.
You just grab a wagon and hike out to their garden pumpkin patch back behind the house.
They decorate the path to the pumpkin patch really cute with lots of fun Halloween decorations for the kids.
Wyatt especially loved this Winnie The Pooh tea party.
All that's left to do is pick your pumpkins
In our search for that perfect pumpkin, we found a little something we didn't expect....
Meet "Pumpkin Seed", the mouse.
(seemed an appropriate name)
She was just a baby mouse, and barely alive. The kids fell in love, and to tell you the truth I really didn't expect her to live the trip home, but we took her home to see if she would get better.
The kids were so happy.
We had found pumpkins, and a new "pet". Haha.
Pumpkin Seed actually perked up quite a bit on the way home, and lived for 2 days with us.
She seemed to make a quick recovery and was doing really well. She ran around and jumped all over the place. I began to think she really would make a full recovery.
We made her a little home in the old aquarium tank from Jason's college pet gecko, Draco.
Josh even made some lego obstacles for her to climb, and this sweet lego car.
We fed her with an eye dropper, she was too young to eat on her own.

The poor little thing only lived for 2 days, then passed away. We think she was just too young to be on her own, and she really was not well when we found her.
The kids were sad, but they felt good about giving her 2 more days of a warm and happy place to live, and they had a lot of fun playing with her.

Adorable pictures. It is just wrong how adorable your children are. You are kind of cute too! But man oh man, your children; I just want to hug them and squeeze them and kiss thier cute little cheeks. I miss you guys a ton!
You are so funny! Your kids are welcome to come and take the mice that live in our home away!
We have had 2 mother mice and their 10 babies in our home over this past year. One of them stayed with us for 6months, and we just found his poop and our food chewed open in our food room.
I wish I had the same love for baby mice like you do. ahhhhhhhh!!!!
ADORABLE photos!!! You are amazing. You could be a children's fasion designer and photograper!
