Pumpkin Patch 2010

Well it is that time of year again, time for pumpkin picking! We went to a pumpkin patch for the first time last year and had a blast, so we decided that we would go to one again this year. This time we went to one called Pride of the Wapsi. It was a lot of fun! They had lots of fun things to do besides just picking pumpkins and I think Makayla was in heaven!
One of the things they had was a pony ride.
Look how happy she is riding her pony
They also had this little barrel ride that she could not stop talking about. She would say how it would go slow and then fast. It really didn't go that fast, but watching Makayla you would think it was going so fast because she was holding on so tight and would only let one hand go to wave to us!
Face painting was a must! Makayla loves it! They some different options that the kids could choose from and of course she picked a spider! She is on a spider kick all of a sudden. She doesn't like them when they are alive but loves to look at dead ones and pictures of them.

They also had tons of jump houses for the kids to go in. This one was a caterpillar. She liked it a lot. They had a couple other ones that she wouldn't go in because too many big kids were in them, but she did enjoy them!

Here is Makayla and daddy in one of the many cutouts they had for you to take pictures in. She thought it was so fun to drive the bus. She has a thing for pretending to drive. Most of the time we can't get out of the car without letting her pretend to drive us to UTAH!

After all the fun we had on the farm we still had to go and get pumpkins, the whole reason we went to the patch in the first place. We rode on a tractor out to the patch. It was a very bumpy ride, at least to me, but hey I am 9 months pregnant!

Daddy and Makayla enjoying the ride

Makayla in the middle of the pumpkins. Notice the outfit for pumpkin picking. Shorts and a short sleeved shirt! It was like 90 degrees outside that day. Crazy weather for October, but I will take it! I am not ready for winter!

Makayla found just the right pumpkin! She also insisted that we get a baby one for the baby so we did. Now we will just see if she is here in time for Halloween!


After the pumpkin patch we went to dinner and I had to throw this picture of Makayla and her lemon in. It was just too cute. This girl loves to suck on lemons and she thought it was so cool when I showed her this trick!

Well that is it for this post! I am loving Fall and the weather we are having. Stay tuned for Halloween costume pictures. I am just finishing up making her costume!
