Disappointment

I learned yesterday that a tradition that I love and more importantly a tradition my children love will no longer happen. I am so sad about it and Preslie is NOT going to take this well at all. What I am referring to is this......the pumpkin patch. It is a kindergarten field trip tradition. Generally speaking I do not enjoy field trips. Never have BUT this one is just precious and I have pictures of Hunter, Kyleigh and Addison with their kindergarten classes at the pumpkin patch! I learned yesterday that Hoover Kindergarteners will not be going on the annual pumpkin patch trip because, get this, the pumpkin patch is no longer growing their own pumpkins?! They just bring in pumpkins and put them in the pumpkin patch. How lame. She is not going to be a happy girl when I share this news with her. Picking a pumpkin at Walmart will just not be the same ~

Poor girl! My kids love the P Patch. I found out Emma's pre-school won't be taking the trip b/c they say it's too expensive. It's under $10 - talk about lame. I feel for you!

Don’t Miss

As the saying goes, we miss 100% of the shots we don't take. Sometimes I find I have to be forced to do things and rarely do I regret it...
