pumpking patch

We decided since we had so much fun last year at the pumpkin patch we would come back again!  It was really fun because both Mason and Lily being a little bit older they could enjoy all the fun things!

I do exist!!!

We went down to see the goats, usually you could feed them but the feeder was out of order

It was a little bit muddy but the kids both had a really fun time picking out some pumpkins.  Lily wanted everyone she could see (which was a lot) Mason was a bit more picky looking for the perfect one, not too small or too big, or too orange or dirty (the dirty part was the trickiest...they are all dirty!)

Mason helped Lily pick out a really cute little one that she carried around with her the rest of the time, even while checking out the other larger pumpkins.

After picking our perfect pumpkins we went to check out all the fun places to play.  There were a whole bunch of old tractors the kids could sit on...

And a little petting zoo with baby goats, sheep and a baby cow.  Plus some chickens and maybe a turkey, I can't remember

Lily is not too fond of the goat :)

What are these things called???  Anyway there was a whole bunch of them around the entire pumpkin patch that the kids could put there heads through

Getting bigger!

Not surprisingly the bridge was again one of the favorite activities!

Some cute pictures of Lily in the fall time :)

Some random things:

* Mason had only been potty training for a week and I wasn't sure what I was going to do since we had been home that entire week and he only used the little potty.  I decided to bring an extra set of cloths and see what happened.  I thought it would be better to try and use the port o potties instead of just putting him in pull ups (though I did bring some just in case he peed through a second pair of clothes) because I didn't want him to think every time we left somewhere he could just go in his pull ups.  Well it worked out great!  It took a little coaxing and a bribe for a toy from the gift shop, but he did it and as a result his fear of public "big potties" was vanished!

* The fresh apple cider donuts were sooooo yummy!
