On Saturday we joined the Larson family at Old Baker Farm. For those who don't know the Larson's-John is the worship pastor at our church. Additionally, he grew up in Colorado Springs with Todd and has known the Helzer's for many years. The rest of the family includes his wife Debbie and three kids; Garrett, Selah, and Josiah. John was the pastor who did our per-marital counseling, and Debbie has become my mentor. We love this family, and enjoyed spending a day with them on the farm! It's been tradition for them to go to the farm every Fall. The farm is open to the public on weekends. The farm includes cotton, corn, and pumpkins fields. In addition, they have a barn where kids can pet the animals, hay rides out to the pumpkin field where you can pick out your pumpkin, live bluegrass/country music, haystack and corn maze, and lastly, a Civil War reenactment! There was plenty to do, and we all had a good time!
