Pumpkin Patch!






















Today Mark,Lucy and I visited the Pumpkin Patch at Disability Resources Inc. in Abilene. DRI is home to many "special people" who are mentally challenged and need a placed to work and live. It is a wonderful place and the residents are precious. Every October for the past few years, they have had a Pumpkin Patch to help benefit their cause. While there, we ran into our friend Julie, with her granddaughter Emerson. What a cutie! Even Lucy enjoyed helping me choose pumpkins and gourds for fall decorating. Mark wasn't thrilled to have his pic taken at the Pumpkin Patch, but as usual, he was a good sport and cooperated. It really was a fun time!
