Picking out pumpkins!

We took the girls to a local pumpkin patch last weekend. It was very wet in the fields so we needed to pick our pumpkins out of the pre-picked batch. They also had hay rides which the girls loved going on... okay, okay, Hubby and I loved it too!!
 
Our three pumpkins are behind the girls, we got gourds and corn, too! I think gourds are so cool and unusual! The girls couldn't get over their shapes and colors!

Sarah wanted so much to feed the chickens but was afraid to do it. As you can see on the far right is Daddy's helping hand! I am not so sure Sarah appreciated his help!

She did get the courage up to do it, way to go Sarah!

Anna on the other hand did not get the courage up to even stand next to them. She is our scaredy cat! She wanted nothing to do with the chickens other than to watch them from afar! In the pic she is further away from them than it appears!

It was really so much fun going there with the girls and the weather was perfect! It was a cool crisp fall day!

SO CUTE!! We haven't made it to the pumpkin patch this year...I'm such a bad mommy! Perhaps it's not too late.
