Down on the Pumpkin Farm




Today, we decided to take advantage of the warm weather and check out a local pumpkin farm. Most of the fall harvest festivities seem to be starting next weekend, but there are quite a few of these places in the area so we decided to get a head start on pumpkin picking. There were only 2 or 3 other families there at the time we were there, since it's still a little early in the season. But I'm sure next weekend will be a zoo there.




There was a little animal farm that we could walk through and feed the animals, and Leah loved looking and pointing at all of them. She enjoyed grabbing the grass to feed the goats, and would not let go of it and even carried her handfuls of grass during her little train ride.




We put her in her own car at first, but she got a little scared, so we switched her to the caboose to sit with another girl and she sat and smiled at us during the long ride around the farm.




She just loved running around and pointing and shouting about everything. It was a lot of fun and we're looking forward to taking her to some other farms over the next few weeks.





They didn't offer a hayride to the pumpkin patch, so we just picked out a cute little one for her.
