I'd love to say that our recent outing to the local pumpkin patch had everything to do with my
Project: Happiness October resolutions... (it wasn't - well, I guess not technically, but I'm still counting it, as I'm failing miserably at this month's resolutions and I need to put a gold star up somewhere, y'know?). But the pumpkin patch trip in mid-October is our family tradition. It started waaaaay back when Miss Madds was only a teeny tiny year old, and I picked the coldest, drizzliest day of the month to rouse the Hubs up off the couch and head out to get our pumpkin. It was a grumpy start, but we all had such fun that day, 4 years ago, that it's now the Hubs that is bugging for us to go by the first weekend of October. And a tradition was born...
This year Katie did more than snooze in the baby carrier... she was all, "LOOKIT THIS STUFF! ZZZZOMG THIS! AND THIS! AND DID YOU KNOW THERE WAS A SANDBOX!?!?"
 |
She would not.stop.moving from the moment we got there. |
 |
"Bowling" game with Daddy |
 |
Umm... dangerous spot for my toddler to be watching her big sister "bowling". |
 |
There was a train. It was good fun. |
 |
She wanted to be just like her big sister - whatelseisnew. |
 |
Dirt. Yay, dirt. |
 |
Don't forget about the corn maze. Madds led us through to the end without one wrong turn. Methinks she's smart like Mommy. |
 |
Of course there was a tractor to drive... |
 |
And oh yeah, the pumpkin... |
We had a great time and had great weather for it - so thank you Mother Nature, for letting us enjoy 2+ hours out in the crisp fall sun!
