Our Pumpkin Patch Adventure 2010

In mid-October we ventured to our first ever trip to the Big Orange Pumpkin Patch. It's located in Celina--not too far from where we live, but it feels like it's out in the middle of nowhere--it's great! The drive out there was beautiful, and it really was starting to feel like fall! Yay! Our friends Jenn, Joe, and Brody joined us for the day--we had a blast!

"okay, now I've got it!"

he had fun checking out the animals too

Mario and "Mini-Mario"

the animal feeding was by far his favorite part of the day

Anthony and his friend Brody

We kept saying, "Don't let the animals get your cup!"
And I'm pretty sure it happened to both of them!

These animals were pretty aggressive and/or hungry!

the adults are ready to move on at this point!

We only got one cup of animal feed each when we entered the pumpkin patch, but man-- it was like the cups never ran dry!!!

it was pretty cute, though!

oh, here we go--we finally made it on over to see and do some of the other things! Here's our little family on the hay ride--Anthony still talks about this!!!

Lucas LOVED playing with the hay--he probably would've loved eating it too if he didn't have his pacifier in!

Lucas just loves life!

this is "the look" Anthony gives when he's about to challenge our authority...

but he sure is handsome, isn't he?

just look at those little stinkers--being nosy

I was trying to get them to look at the camera by asking, " How many fingers am I holding up?"

HAPPY FALL, Y'ALL!!!
