pics from the patch

Fall has an unfair disadvantage with me. It follows my most favorite season, summer. How can you not love summer?! Long days. Sunshine. Swimming. When you're little, no school! Camping, vacations, etc. 

But fall does have its ups, though I usually loathe it's return. I can appreciate cool (not cold) crisp days, like a breath of fresh air. And I do heart scarves and boots (still not enough to yearn for summer to be over). One of my favorite things about fall is our annual pumpkin patch trip. Is it just me or is it becoming less and less about the actual pumpkins?! The place we go to now has duck races, super yummy food (and lots of it!), pig races, a corn field/maze, corn bin, hay mazes, wagon rides, go karts, and a cow train. And more that I'm forgetting, all sorts of stuff in the kid's area. It's super fun. 

Poor Andie with her band-aid...this was not too long after her first laser treatment. 

It was baby Avie's first ever trip to the patch! Not thinking she was super impressed. She was all about snuggling with daddy though, and I did get some smiles. 

Duck races... The white one won. 

Corn bin!

She was on the hunt for the perfect pumpkin...

Cow train! Every time, with those two fingers...

This girl loves to bounce. 

Aannnndd here we have a potty accident. I didn't obviously realize it until after the picture was taken. Awesome. 

It was pretty fun. And I think I'm done until next year. Ready for summer again!
