Last Friday a few friends and I brought our kids to the pumpkin patch. We had all gone last year together and the kids were all so little then that we just sat around talking and got a group shot. It was way easier back then but this year it definitely meant more. Ace had a great time playing and even has a new girlfriend, Payton. Her Mom, Lindsay and I, have known each other since first grade. Actually most of us have been friends since elementary school so it is awesome that our kids are all around the same age. Lindsay brought her camera and took some incredible shots of the kids. This one has got to be my all time favorite picture of Ace. It just shows his personality perfectly. So happy and just ready to go have fun.

Her daughter Payton loved Ace. She seriously was obsessed with him and kept grabbing his shirt and then hugging him. They are probably the most, I guess you could say, assertive of the bunch. They are more fearless too. We have always seen a lot of similarities in them so it was funny how much they connected.
