Pumpkin Patch Time.

Lastnight we took the kiddies to the local Pumpkin Patch. It was the girls' first time there and they loved it. Unfortunately we couldn't stay too long and I wished that we could have taken them earlier in the day (for better picture taking). At first Vanessa was a little reserved but with the carnival like atmosphere (the inflatable airslides, animals, and music), she warmed up to the patch rather quickly. Natalie followed suit. They were having a ball running around and picking up the miniature pumpkins. The one thing that I was looking forward to was the set up of the pumpkin patch. Previous years they have the pumpkins on the ground set up in a spiral design or maze. This year they propped all the pumpkins on hay blocks so the girls' couldn't walk around them. I wanted to see Vanessa try to pick up a regular size pumpkin because at home she'll try to pick up big objects such as weights or watermelons. She's going to be a weightlifter when she grows up. Not this year....bummer. It would been great to take pictures of.
