We headed to Craven Farm today to meet up with my family. It’s rare now, with my mom and dad living out of state, that all of us manage to get together much anymore. It was pretty incredible that 100% of the Hansen Clan was representing!

It was an opportunity to capture our next generation, together, complete at last. Gigi and Lydia seem to have found a bit of common ground, Luke, Kyan and Jude ping off of one another amiably, and everyone cavorted together through the corn maze, for the launching of the pumpkins and across the pumpkin fields in search of the the most sincere pumpkin. It was quite a time for those five.

We’ve had a lot of good fortune in recent years, getting our best family pictures at the pumpkin patch. I suppose orange suits us well! Seeing these year after year truly makes me believe that what we did today is important. I saw my brothers, my parents and the kids all laughing, playing, connecting and sharing real life. We shared a meal, caught up on life and celebrated one another. It was a really great day.
