Pumpkin Time

On Sunday we went to Merrymead Farm for their Fall Harvest Festival. It was pretty hot, so it made doing all these fun fall activities strange!


Juli got a kick out of these "photo opportunities".

We went through a mini corn maze. The girls loved it. It was very low and catered to small children. I thought I might not be able to stand up straight again when we got out!

Juli was really excited by this cow tractor. It was in the barn and we couldn't go in, but she really wanted to check it out.

Livi is the orange flower and Juli is in the yellow one to the right.

Grandma, Livi and Daddy checking things out. I think they were heading toward the peacocks. Check out the caterpillar thing in the top right corner. It was pretty big and made out of pumpkins.

Juli used her tickets to get prizes.

After doing some inflatable bouncy things we headed back toward the maze and the tractor train rides. Juli earned the title of Chief Corn Inspector here.

Waiting for the tractor train to start.

Choo Choo! Is this not the cutest thing?

While Livi and I were waiting for James to get Juli settled on her train ride, we bumped into my friend Kim!! You can see a few pictures on her blog. Kim's daughter Lilly is the same age as Livi.

After that, we headed over to pick up our pumpkins.

Please?

Bibbidi Bobbidi Boo!

After we got home that night, James and Juli carved a pumpkin. They named him, Wilson. Poor Wilson has since had his head and part of his face eaten by squirrels.

Sweet! I love pumpkin patches. So funny to see your pics and Kim's pics of the same place, LOL. De ja vu.
