Pumpkin Patch

We took the girls to a pumpkin patch today. This was the first year that Hallie actually understood what we do at a pumpkin patch and she loved it. We expected a crisp fall day (since it has been pretty cold lately) but we were surprised when it turned out to be 80 degree weather! We were pretty hot, but we had a lot of fun. It was the perfect way to get the girls out of the house and to give Cam a break from studying.

Above: At the pumpkin patch, they had this giant face painted onto a huge bail of hay. Hallie got to ride a pony, go inside a hay teepee, go through a hay maze, and go on a cow painted wagon ride with Daddy.

Above: They had a petting zoo there and as you can see, Cam felt right at home petting the goats.

Above: I took Hallie through the hay maze and at the end, we had to climb this two story-high stack of hay, which Hallie did over and over again!

So cute! I can't believe how big Sydnee has gotten. I miss you guys :( It's fun to see you enjoying the fall weather. We don't get that here. We just get to watch the palm trees that stay green all year. But last week I got to go to the beach so I'm not complaining!
