Pumpkin Patch

We went to the Circle Y to get pumpkins this year. The girls always have so much fun there. It has a petting zoo, a great play area, a cow train, and a hayride to the pumpkin patch. I don't really think it's an actual "patch;" they just set the pumpkins out and let you go get them. I actually like it better because it's so much easier to get the pumpkin you want. Gracie is our animal lover (or at least she likes them more than Lindsay), but she didn't want anything to do with the goats or chickens this time. Both girls loved riding the cow train. I was so worried that Gracie would try to come out, but I should have known better. If I give Lindsay the job of keeping Gracie in one place, she will just about tackle her if she has to. Gracie did keep disappearing down into the train and sticking her hands out the bottom though.
We all had fun picking out pumpkins. Lindsay and Gracie had very different strategies. Gracie spotted the one she wanted the minute we put her down, and she carried it around the entire time we were out there. Lindsay is more like her mommy though and kept changing her mind.
