Pumpkin Patch

We met a few friends at the Pumpkin Patch on a Sunday morning a couple weeks ago. The kids had a great time on the hay ride, feeding the animals, and picking the perfect pumpkins. Unfortunately, one of the ones we picked wasn't so perfect. After a few days on the porch, it wilted and then we found it completely smashed beside the steps. I think some of the critters that eat my flowers decided to snack on our pumpkin every night until it just fell a part! At least our two bigger ones are holding up!

Emma wanted to take the dog home with us! She hugged all over him and chased him around!



The pumpkin had a sign, "do not sit," it didn't say "do not drum!"

Family shot on the hayride! =) Don't the kids look thrilled... I think they were just getting impatient and ready for the thing to move! haha



Emma loved the animals and had no fear! She'd feed them and reach in and pet all of them. She likes to point at their eyes and say "eyes," so we had to keep an eye on her!



Drew was a little nervous to let the animals eat out of his hand (understandably). But he finally tried it and thought it was pretty cool!

After the animals, we took the hayride to the pumpkin patch and searched for three pumpkins to take home. Emma liked these two!


And here's Drew's pick!







Later that day we attempted pig tails again in Emma's hair!




And here's our big hitter practicing! He likes watching the World Series on tv!
