Pumpkin Patch

 

This year Savannah's preschool class decided to take a trip to the pumpkin patch for one of their activities.  We were going to go as a family but decided one trip was good enough for us.  We did get to go with our friends which makes the world of a difference.  The girls had a lot of fun, except Savannah got to hot towards the end of the day. (Mom thought that is was going to be cold outside, and I told her she needed to dress warm.  


First stop was to pet the animals.  Its amazing how exciting farm animal are to girls who don't live on the farm.  Brittlynn wanted to look but didn't care to touch them.  



Next stop was a maze that ended with a slide.  I didn't realize how fast the slide was until little Brittlynn went flying off at the end.  She was safe, but a little scared.



What kind of pumpkin patch would be complete without a potato sack slide.  The girls didn't realized they need the sacks to slide down on, but you can tell from the expression on their face, they had the time of their life.

 Best of Sisters...
 Best of Friends...

Brittlynn is loving how big she is on top of the world

Climbing on top of a pile of hay is always an adventure, especially when it makes you feel like you are on top of the world.  The sun was just in the right spot to create some beautiful sun rays.  I was trying out different ways to get a silhouette shot. This is one that I got of Brittlynn.


Of course we had to try a little cattle roping.  Savannah loved it and quickly looked like a pro.  Brittlynn had a little bit harder time. (The rope was almost as big as her.)  She tried so hard (if you look close you can see she has her tongue sticking out)...then she walked up and put the rope over the horn of the bull.  With excitement and arms extended she shows of her hard work.  




We found a pile of corn to play in...they all had a blast I think they could have stayed forever.  We made them leave so we could go on a hay ride around the farm.  Who knew corn could be so much fun.



Finally we were able to pick out pumpkins.  Brittlynn had so much fun lining up each pumpkin.  She wanted to take them all home but she could only take one.  




It was a beautiful day and we had a lot of fun playing at the pumpkin patch with our friends.  I am so glad Brittlynn and Savannah can do so many things together.  They truly are best sisters and best friends.
