Visit to the Pumpkin Patch

October 28, 2014 by Brittany Leave a Comment

Last week we took a trip to our local orchard and picked our own pumpkins. It was a little chilly, but so much fun. Aliceana has been watching Spookly the Pumpkin* on a near daily basis, so she was extra excited to head to the pumpkin patch. This was our first time visiting a pumpkin patch and picking our own pumpkins as a family of 3, so it was extra exciting.

*If you’re unfamiliar with Spookly the Pumpkin, it’s a Disney Junior movie all about a square pumpkin in a pumpkin patch. As I’m writing this, it happens to be playing right now, so naturally we’re watching it for the 7th time.

Our orchard is definitely catered towards families and they have a ton of fun activities for the little ones. Since this was our second visit this year and it was pretty cold, we just quickly fed the cute goats, and checked out the big cows. Then we got a wagon and headed to the pumpkin patch.

Once we were in the middle of the pumpkin patch Aliceana started to have so much fun. After awhile I let her take the lead. I actually filmed a quick minute long video of her leading the way and she has been hijacking my phone and watching it non-stop ever since. I promise it’s not nearly as interesting as she thinks, she waited until after I stopped filming to pick out her pumpkin, of course.
She was doing a great job of stepping over the vines and weeds to get through to the best pumpkins. She also had to stop and declare every pumpkin that was even a little bit square to be just like Spookly.

Look at how cute these two are together, I’m pretty sure she’s going to be as tall as him someday, or at least close to as tall as he is. She will most definitely tower over me since she’s already over half of my height at age 2.

We had so much fun this year, and I know that we’ll be making this a new Fall tradition. It’s the little moments where we get to spend as a family like this, that I know we’ll never forget.
