Pumpkin Patchin'

On Saturday we went to Aplin Farms! We had a great time visiting with the animals...





And playing in/on the inflatables...









I seriously loved the slide and may have overly encouraged that we keep going on it...




We also loved being pumpkin heads...




And when we needed a little snack/drink break, we hopped on the train for a ride through the sunflower fields...






After resting up on our train ride, we took a wagon ride out to the pumpkin patch, and we sniffed beautiful sunflowers...






We hunted for the perfect pumpkin...



Makaela may or may not have grabbed one, yelled "bAWWWL!" (ball) and rolled it aggressively. Oops. 


We explained they were pumpkins and she looked at us like we were nuts, and requested a "han" (hand) to hold and continue walking through the field. She tripped and face planted in the dirt approximately 7 times, but who's counting?



Turns out she did know what pumpkins were because a little later she started greeting all of the pumpkins. "Hi Pum Hi Pum!" and then she would bend down and kiss it. 



Lottttts of love for dem pumpkins...


And when we told her we had to leave to get back on the wagon, you guessed it, she changed her tune to "Bye Pum!" and the kissing continued...


What a great time we had, and what a different experience from last year. Look how little baby Mak was last Fall!


That little pumpkin butt was just starting solid foods and hadn't even learned to crawl yet. Things sure do change fast!



Who you calling a pumpkin butt??
