Pumpkin Patch fun...

We are pumpkin patched out!!

First, Avery had her first field trip with her class! They went to our favorite pumpkin patch. Jon was able to meet them there. I think Avery's favorite part was riding on the school bus though! Here she is with her best friend Natalie.
Next we had a playgroup pumpkin patch day. Here I am with the kiddos on a hayride...

Here's Avery with her friend Nola...


And here's Avery with her friends Jillian and Delaney. It always cracks me up seeing Avery leading her friends around. She looks like the big kid helping out her younger friends...too bad she is a few months younger than both of these girls!


Next we had a Fall Festival day at our rec center. The highlight was decorating, then eating a cookie!


Our last pumpkin patch trip - we headed over to the Roloff farm (the one from the TV show Little People Big World). It was an interesting visit. Very touristy. The poor owners/tv stars took pictures with a few hundred strangers in the hour we were there. We didn't ask for a photo with them, but I did take a shot of Matt Roloff with some other strangers...

Avery loved riding the ponies. As sad as I am for the animals at places like this, it lights up my heart to see Avery smile like this. She rode the ponies twice! And would have stayed there all day if we let her...

Avery also got brave and fed the animals. She liked the alpaca the best, but they weren't hungry so the goats got all of Avery's food...

We also found out that Collin finally likes the backpack.

And we got a couple of cute family photos, so the family trip to one more pumpkin patch was worth it....
