Pumpkin Patch

I have always heard of friends taking advantage of the fall weather and enjoying the pumpkin patch with their kids......well we did just that today. It was a beautiful fall day, perfect for pumpkin picking. We went to Bo Brook Farms in Roland, it was great! They had giagantic stuffed spiders, (plastic) alligators swimming in the creek, hay rides, face painting, a petting zoo, a hay maze and of course the pumpkin patch. I am already excited about returning next year when Avery Reese can do more.

This is Avery Reese's scary glow-in-the-dark skeleton onesie....I think it is just adorable. It really shows off her figure. Perfect for pumpkin picking.

As usual, Avery Reese loved the animals. I think she thought the donkey was a really big dog. The goats were cute, but the cutest animals were the 3 piglets. We didn't get too close as there was a huge mud puddle and several flies surronding their pen.

Brad was trying to find the perfect "sugar" pumpkin for Avery Reese. I am not quite sure what qualifies as a sugar pumpkin; they were just small and cute for Avery Reese's first pumpkin.

Avery Reese in the hay maze. Apparently the sun was shinning in her eyes. You can tell she has been drinking her formula; her bones look great.

We found a wheel barrel with several tiny pumpkins and gourds; Avery Reese enjoyed throwing them and watching them "bounce". Until next pumpkin season!
