Visit to the Pumpkin Patch…
First taste of cotton candy…she was very reluctant to put this weird dust-bunny-like substance into her mouth….
Petting the bunny rabbit with Mommy at the little petting zoo…
Inside the bouncy castle, just before the weird little girl named Roxanne tried to step on her face (and, to weird little girl’s mother’s credit, weird little girl got pulled out of there lickitysplit…)
Really happy at all the bouncing on the hay ride…
Really pissy at having to show Mommy her butterfly hand painting for, like, the thirty-second time so that Mommy could take a picture…
A family who picks pumpkins together…
eats them together!…
The Bee had no concept of what the hell was going on when we were carving the pumpkins…she thought we were cooking dinner, and, as such, that the carving scraps should be sampled…
Finished product…checking out the “pumpkin fire” (that’s what she signed when she saw it…)
Your pumpkin patch has a petting zoo. Fun! And cotton candy. Can’t beat that.
Love your pumpkin fire. And great family photo!

Oh, dear — you know how to hurt a guy! Now, I really, REALLY miss my annual visit to Young’s Farm with the little one! BTW, which patch did you visit?

Okay, between this, the fires in California, and Orange Worm - I’m seeing a definite theme to the blog lately.
Great pictures. The girl could not be any cuter! Don’t playdate with Roxanne the Face Stepper.

And Spike says: I think it was funny when she thought they were cooking dinner! Emme Lu is funny!

“Pumpkin fire”…she’s a sweetie! Where’d you go pumpkin-ing, now that Young’s is a thing of the past?

I love the pictures. And the fact that you all are still in short sleeved shirts!

She strikes me as a soul who experiences things deeply. And I too am envious of the short sleeves… they’re calling for snow here sometime this week…

Great fun. Just curious - do the dogs like pumpkin? Whenever I carve one they circle ’round like a pack of wolves, they adore it so much. You’d think I was carving a side of beef! I always save some of the scraps and scrapings and mix it with their kibble.

Hey! My dogs are obsessed with pumpkin, too! Isn’t that weird?

Looks like a great day was had by all! I was intrigued by the cotton candy in a cup- whatever happened to getting it in that giant unmanagable form that looked like a giant wig on top of a paper cone?

Pumpkin fire! Perfect.

Such a smart girl - pumpkin fire AND reluctant to put that pink stuff in her mouth. I don’t blame her. Glad to hear R’s family is safe for now. And thanks for the photos; I can never get too much EL viewing.
