Pumpkin Patch Fun!

Last weekend we made our annual trip to the pumpkin patch. We went to the same place this year that we did last year---Maris Farms is so fun and highly recommended! Unlike last year, this year Mckinley could really participate in a lot of the kid stuff. Her little personality is so funny. Lately she is almost always shy when she first meets someone or even for her grandmas and papas. She warms up pretty quickly though. Also, she is really starting to turn out to be against anything risky. She is a pretty big scaredy cat! She absolutely loved this big bounce balloon thing however. Check out the pics below of what pure joy looks like! :)

Kyan obviously wasn't really even sure what was going on, but he did well. This kid hardly ever gets upset...now of course I have jinxed this, but hopefully not! He is so go with the flow. He just rode in the Ergo and then took a little nap--I do not think I heard one whine or cry from him.

So we did some kid stuff, ate lunch, bounced around, watched some pig races, met a scarecrow on stilts, went down a slide through the middle of a hill, and picked out our pumpkin. All in all, a highly successful pumpkin patch day (especially since it didn't rain!). I love Fall!!




Ok...starting out clearly a little apprehensive about this place.

 Really does not seem like she is going to like this, right?

And, nope I don't think she did!

This seemed like she was enjoying....

So I say, "Mckinley is this fun?"....this is what I get:

"No, Mckinley smile for me"....

Now it is time for the bounce thing...see what I mean about being a non-risk taker.

"Ok, maybe I'll try...."

"This is pretty fun..."

"This is awesome!!!"

Now for pumpkins!!!

Such a fun weekend!! It makes me SO excited for all of the holiday fun that is upon us!! Can't wait to share the pics!
