Punkin'

Our visit to the pumpkin patch this year was a blast! Alas, camera battery started dying so pics=crap.


We rode the safari train, watched the pumpkin cannons, rode the ponies, pet and scared the crap out of ALL the innocent animals in the petting zoo ( Kael has NO fear! he was SO excited about the goats.. screaming GOAT GOAT GOAT and running up to them to "pat" (hit) with enthusiasm.. then he'd crouch down and try his damnedest to make eye contact with the wee little pony.. gawd that kid is cute.) , walked the plank on the pirate ship, and goofed off on the pumpkins.










Of course, Kael found some random obscure chair and decided that is the coolest thing in the area so sat there forever while we played around him.

Yes, horrible picture. But it's the only one I got of him with the animals as the rest of that visit was spent trying to get his fingers out of their eyes or stop him from yanking on their ears or poking them in the butt ( the pigs... apparently their butts are fascinating).

Raegan on the pony. All by herself! I so have to find me a pony to put her on all the time! She was a good little rider.


It took some convincing but Raegan finally, happily "walked the plank" and was tossed down by her daddy. This pic is actually of the THIRD time she demanded to be tossed down!


We spent a few minutes in our costumes.. Here's a sneak peak at what Halloween has in store! Kael is either a very cunning hunter ( the draft horses LOVED it and kept trying to eat his feet) or.. cooked cabbage? Seaweed? The creature from the black lagoon? Only time will tell......



A tiny peek at one of Raegans tu-tu's. It was pretty windy and cold so none of the costumes performed up to expectations, but the kids had fun so who cares how it came out on film!
