Pumpkin Time!

Ohhh yeah, it's pumpkin season and my favorite part of October! I love everything about pumpkins... picking them, eating them, decorating them, and getting my hands dirty with them. 

This years pumpkin picking was the best one yet because we were able to include Leila in our tradition. She slept the whole time on her first trip to the pumpkin patch but sure made up for it this year. 

We found the perfect little pumpkin patch in Payson, it was complete with a band, pony rides, a petting zoo, games, hay rides, bounce houses, and tractors. The best part: there weren't that many people so we were able to join in on all the fun without the lines and crowds.  


We ended the night by playing the fishing pond game. Where you "throw" the pole into the "pond" and someone attaches a toy at the end of it. Felt like I was in the old movie Pollyanna, love that movie. Leila's our perfect excuse to join in on all the festive fun...I mean when else can we play in the petting zoo, ride a pony, and fish for toys? So looking forward to the holidays this year.

  4. I can tell it was a good fun family day, everybody had fun. Specially Leila, I don't get tired of looking at her expressions, don't talk much but she says a thousand words with her little face.
