Pumpkin Patch

Here are our pictures from our annual trip to the Pumpkin patch! We had a great time. It's amazing to see the difference in the pictures from last year:



To this year.....




Ella and Daddy in the corn maze.



She looks so big in this picture!


Cheese!


Ella and Mommy in the corn maze.


Ella got to ride the cow train. It was pretty cute except that by the end of the ride, she was sliding down and was all slumped down in the seat. Here she is before the ride started..
And here she is at the end!


So, the driver guy told me I could ride too, if I wanted to. Which I really didn't, but I wasn't sure if Ella would start crying when he took off away from Tom and I. So, here I am. Riding the cow train ;)

On the haystacks!

Mama and her girl.

So big, all by herself.

They had a "corn box," with corn kernels instead of sand. She loved it!

Digging around...

Filling the bucket..
We will be sure to get her picture in front of this each year so we can see how much she grows from year to year.
What about this pumpkin, Mama?

She really wanted to pull the wagon herself, but it was a little too heavy :)

So she decided to help Daddy by pushing.

Hard at work :) We're starting to get a little tired here :)



On the hayride.



I love this picture. My two favorite people :)

Tom took this picture on the hayride on the way down to the pumpkin patch, I just thought it was a neat shot!


Another hayride picture :)



This has really become one of our favorite traditions. We had a great time, and so did Ella. It's neat that they have so many fun activities for kids. I'll be posting pictures this week of us carving our pumpkins, and then of course, of Halloween! Have a great week everyone!

Such awesome pics! How do you get Ella to smile for pictures? Charlotte just runs away and arches her back if you try to get her to hold still for them. Stinker! What a great family tradition. I love her little hat from last year. She was so tiny. Where did the time go?
