Cool Patch

Though just six days before Halloween, we finally made it out to Cool Patch Pumpkin Patch on Sunday. We called the family at 10 minutes to nine and said we would be leaving at 9:30 and everyone made it there by 10...thanks to my entire family for understanding that the Borcherts work at the last minute these days!
It was really windy so Amy rode in the Snugli the whole time - hence the lack of Amy pictures in this post. I am thankful though that Au Bob and Grandpa D got some pictures of Amy riding in the Snugli so that 20 years from now we don't have this conversation:

Amy: Mom, why aren't there any pictures of ME and my first trip to Cool Patch?
Me: It was really windy that day, Amy and you rode in the Snugli the whole time.
Amy: But Diana was screaming her lungs out in the pictures of her first trip to Cool Patch, why?
Me: Because it was really windy that day.
Amy: Um, and there are no pictures of me because....
Me: We didn't want you to be as miserable as Diana!

So, again, thanks to Au Bob and Grandpa D for hopefully helping me avoid the above conversation someday.
