Pumpkin Patch

Dan and I took Olivia to the Pumpkin Patch this weekend to pick out her pumpkins to carve on Saturday night. (Which was a flop, since she thought the pumpkin guts were "yucky", and didn't want to touch it.) However, she did have fun at the pumpkin patch. Here's a bunch of pictures:

They had a petting zoo there, with all kinds of different animals. She liked the horse.

She wasn't quite as fond of the little pedal tractor, however. She was pouting here.

THEN, she got to ride the horsie. Since she was kinda' pouting around, we thought that she wouldn't like it, but she LOVED it. She had a BLAST on the horse. It was sooo cute. She patted it and petted it, and giggled the whole time that she was riding it. His name was Mr. Ed, which she told everyone. (Although it sounded more like, "Mrs. F" if you ask my mom.)

Dan walked with her while she was on the pony, too!

She was trying to pick out which little pumpkin she wanted. She changed her mind about 100 times. First, she wanted a white one, then an orange one, then she wanted two, then she wanted a different one. she had different ideas than Titi did. I'm pointing at one thing, and she's pointing at another. :) Ha!

She played in the sandbox filled with corn. They had little tractors there and little people. She kept burying the little guy, and saying, "WHERE DID HE GO??"

She was picking out small pumpkins out of the bin. She was almost too short, and they were almost too heavy for her, but she managed to find two of them that she wanted. One for Gage, and one for Bogey, she says. :)

Uncle Danny put her in the wagon with the pumpkins and pulled her back to the car. She liked that part, too. :)

AND, they had a playground that she could play on. Of course, she wanted to swing and play on all the toys.

They'll take your picture on the straw bales. The three of us. :)

AND, she called Nana on the way home in the car to say really loudly 4 times, "I RODE A PONY!" She was pretty proud.
We had a great time, it was a lot of fun! I look forward to taking her again next year.
Thanks for the recommendation, Christina!
