Pumpkin Patch Fun

Did I mention I love fall?! Our expedition to the pumpkin patch this afternoon was tons of fun, and we brought along two extras to enjoy it with us.

Kathy and Emma came along on our little fall adventure. Emma, never having been to an apple orchard/pumpkin patch, loved every minute. Gracie as turned out, became a little jealous of sharing her afternoon, but she loosened up and had a great time too.

The girls saw all of the animals first, and a goat even tried to snack on the stroller. (Gracie had to ride in her stroller because Emma was riding in one.) Gracie was a lot more brave this trip. She petted the sheep, the baby cow, and even the extra large horse. I am sure he was a regular sized horse, but he looked huge to me!

After visiting all of the animals, we got our bag and went apple picking. Gracie was an old pro at picking apples, and she enjoyed getting them herself. She also loved being hoisted above Daddy's head to pick the ones at the top of the tree. Emma was super cute as she discovered what fun it was to run from tree to tree and try and pull the apples off. She said "apple!" over and over with the biggest toothy grin!

After apples we checked out the pumpkins and the gift shop. It was actually pretty hot outside and both girls were very tired from their afternoon of fun, so we headed back to town.

We invited Kathy and Emma to join us for lunch, but Emma feel asleep in the car ride home, and Kathy thought it would be better for her to stay asleep.

Our two little pumpkins were tuckered out. This afternoon was tons of family fun, and if we are lucky, we will find time to do it again!

I took the most amazing pictures today, and you just have to see them! Click here.
