Pumpkins EVERYWHERE!

We weren't even out of the car when Makenna began squealing with delight!  In perfect timing she has grown a love for pumpkins.  Exclaiming "pumpkins" whenever/wherever she sees them.  And insisting to pat & kiss each one.  The pumpkin patch for now is safe to say one of her favorite places.

We merged families that day with the Myers, their extended family and our extended family to celebrate the season & also Alysha's birthday.  Lucas & Makenna (above) are getting a ride out to the patch by Lucas' dad Andy.

Such a sweet boy.  He held on tight to Makenna while in the wheel barrel to make sure she wouldn't fall out.

Friends with the little girls.

Grandpa with a "playing hard to get" Makenna.

Two keepers!  :)  Many probably don't know this about my husband, but he is all business when it comes to pumpkins.  He has this eye for finding the best pumpkins and puts me to shame when it's time to carve.  This is just one of the two pumpkins we walked away with that day.  

Makenna & Gran.

Makenna & Grandma checking out our finds.

The perfect resting spot.  Just her size.

There is always room to share with friends.

Hand in hand with Grandma & Grandpa.

We attempted to ride the ponies.  Makenna lasted 2 laps before I scooped her off.  Apparently her interest was only in seeing & petting the horse, not so much the riding aspect.  Maybe next year.

Surrounded by PUMPKINS!

The lawbreaker in the family!

Makenna leading Grandma & Gran to more pumpkins.

Nearly two pumpkins tall. 

At the patches playground!  Loving the slides.

Another great adventure with our growing girl.
