Pumpkin Patch

We spent Sunday afternoon at Rombach's Pumpkin Patch. It was such a BEAUTIFUL day!! It had been so cold and dreary for about two weeks here, so we were waiting for just the right time to go.

We went last year, but mainly just walked around and let Kate play in all the pumpkins. This year, since she could enjoy it more, we did a lot more of the "fun stuff".

She went through a little fort...

Posed for LOTS of pictures...

Rode a pony...

She was not impressed. We waited in line for awhile to ride a pony, and I kept asking her over and over if she was sure she wanted to do it. She tends to chicken out of stuff like that. She kept saying yes, so I plopped her on that pony, and she boo-hooed the whole way. She kept saying "Off!" Then, after it was over she proudly told us that she liked it and was a brave girl (yeah, right!).

She got to pick out her very own little pumpkin, which we will paint next week...

She got her face painted...

And, I think her favorite part of all was this big sucker we bought for her as we were leaving...

It was a great trip to the pumpkin patch. We kept saying how next year we will have an almost three year old and an eight month old. Doesn't quite seem possible!!
