the pumpkin patch

last thursday i took riley and her friend to the pumpkin patch...

almost 3 feet tall!


riley absolutely loved all the animals - and there were lots! her favorites were the bunnies (she liked watching them drink their water) and the "goats up high"

she also loved getting food out of the machine and feeding the animals


we took a hay ride down to the pumpkin patch...


...where she would not pose for a picture. here she is doing everything "by myself".


and lastly, the hay ride back up to the farm where mommy enjoyed a cup of apple cider and a few cider donut holes. we also picked out a few pumpkins and riley got to pick her own baby pumpkin. she has since carried her baby pumpkin around and even wanted to sleep with it. that girl and her obsessions.

happy october!
