We took Amelia to the same farm/pumpkin patch that we did last year (it's pretty popular around here) and she would ask to go down the slides over and over and over. We had to call it quits so we could see the rest of the farm before lunch/nap time. There are a lot of slide photos; I really did try to pick the ones where you could see how much she loved it.
We stopped to visit the animals.
Goat petting area
And then there were more slides
They have a "Farm Chores" pavilion where kids can pretend to do just that. Turns out that the parents end up doing most of the work...so here is Daddy pumping water so Amelia's ducky can float through the race course.
She also could have camped out at this play area. The kids were to scoop the dried corn into their plastic pots and then (be carried up the stairs) dump them on a conveyor belt where they dropped off the end and bounced everywhere and made a lot of great noise. Amelia actually understood that scooping corn meant that she got to pour it on the belt and was happy to do so.
Last year we held out on her and didn't let her drink the apple cider. This year she got to taste it and definitely kept asking for more.
The corn crib was also a favorite. She had fun scooping the dried corn and dumping it into Daddy's hands. It was a little harder here to convince her that it wasn't for eating herself.
Picking out her pumpkin to take home.
Attempting a photo with all of the pumpkins.
She was ready for a nap, and this photo is too funny not to post it!
But we did wrangle one sweet family photo out of her.
Yay for autumn!
