We headed down to the Pumpkin Patch on Saturday. What a beautiful day! It got rather warm if you were in the sun, but that was remedied by a cold treat in the shade.
Samantha wasn’t thrilled to go on a hayride, but you have to to get back to the big pumpkin fields. (We were towed by a big noisy tractor!)
Ellie didn’t seem to mind.
Once we got there, Sam was in search for a little pumpkin. 🙂 I think she was trying to find one that she could carry because she would pick one up randomly then decide it was too big or too heavy! We got the smallest one that we could find, but it’s still a mostly normal size pumpkin. I guess she was thinking she could find something like we have as decorations all over the house.
(Brian, why didn’t you tell me that Ellie had a tail?! I would have fixed that!)
We skipped out on the hay maze, but maybe we’ll try it next year. This was the first year we tried the jumpy things. I knew she would have a blast. She mostly played in the big pumpkin, but went down the Sabertooth Tiger slide once!
Samantha and I had shaved ice as a treat. Hers was blueberry and bright blue! Here she is trying to do “silly eyes.”
(Ellie isn’t doing it right either…)
We had a great time. We saw several families that we knew, so I guess it was the weekend for picking out your pumpkin! Now it’s time to research how I’m going to carve my pumpkin.
