Our yearly pumpkin patch visit is complete! 🎃🍂

We’ve been doing this every year since Zen was just 11 months old, which makes it pretty crazy to think about how many pumpkin patch memories we’ve made over the years. 🥹

It’s definitely getting harder to squeeze in our traditions now that they’re all in school and life is so busy, but we made it happen today and even managed to avoid most of the rain! 🙌🏽

I’m just thankful that they still want to hang out with me and keep doing these things together. I know these days won’t last forever, and it really hit me today that I only have three more pumpkin patch visits with Zen before he graduates high school. 😭 I’m definitely holding onto these moments a little tighter.

And this year gave us some new memories for sure. 😂 We were halfway through the corn maze when the rain really started coming down… and Zen, of course, was wearing CROCS. He nearly went down multiple times trying to make it through the muddy maze. Which gave Sho the biggest laugh! 😂

Another pumpkin patch in the books. Another year of watching my boys grow up way too fast. 🎃🍁💜

Traditions may look a little different as they get older, but I’m so grateful we’re still making the memories.
