Today, we went to a farm to pick our own pumpkins. The farm is very close to our house, so it was convenient for us to spend some time there this afternoon. In order to get to the pumpkin patch, we had to go on a hayride through the farmland. We weren't sure how Camryn was going to react to the hayride. She seemed a little skeptical of the tractor at first, but she got into the wagon with us. She held on tight to me while looking around with wide eyes. She seemed to enjoy all of the bumps during the ride! When we got to the pumpkin patch, she was so excited. She immediately ran to get to the pumpkins. Unfortunately, a pumpkin patch isn't necessarily the easiest for a toddler to navigate. But, that didn't deter her

!! She was all about getting the pumpkins! She found one just her size, then tried to tackle a much bigger one. She tried as hard as she could to pick that one up, but it just didn't cooperate! She finally gave up and moved on. While she was exploring, daddy found a few good pumpkins to take home with us. We loaded them back onto the hayride and we were on our way back to the farm to pay. While on the hayride back to the farm, Camryn enjoyed sitting with daddy on a bail of hay. The only thing that would have made this the perfect fall afternoon of picking pumpkins would have been if it actually felt like fall! There is something very strange about picking pumpkins and going on a hayride when it is almost 80 degrees!!! But, we weren't complaining!!
