Two Little Pumpkins This Year (our list keeps growing)

Why is it that I never went to Pumpkin Patches (not even ONE) until I had kids?? They're super fun and festive!
This was last years event...as you can see, I had both of my boys with me - just one was being carried at all times. :)

There wasn't a whole lot Lincoln could do last year except sit where I plopped him. He had just started walking but not good enough to take off on his own.

Enter 2010 family getaway to the pumpkin patch - a whole different story.

There were barrels of corn to sit and play in...
Or stand and throw (take one guess where that corn was heading!)...

Hay tunnels to run through...

Hayrides to embark on (though when we learned this one lasted 40 minutes, I "bailed" off the back and Jason tossed the kids over)...

Samurai Swords to be found...

Hot dog buns to munch on (Noah's first taste of real food not pureed)...

Cow trains to be hitched (this was Noah's personal favorite - he giggled the whole ride)...

Marshmallows to be roasted and crammed in one tiny little mouth...
6'5'' shoulders to hitch rides on...

Grumpy bulldogs to laugh at...

Slides to race down...

"Pumpkin Ball" to be played (of course we had to do this first)...

Hay to be tossed all over mommy ...

By Mr. Lincoln, of course...

Oh - and hay to be eaten...

And of course, lots of pumpkins!!!

I LOVE (adore, cherish, anticipate, relish, you get the ides) FALL!!!!! I prefer the name "Autumn" cause it sounds do much prettier, but nonetheless, this season is fantastic. Now if the weather would stay a consistent cool temperature, all would be perfect.
