Pumpkin Patch

Published by Marlan at 1:13 pm under Ava, Family, Grace

We went to the pumpkin patch at Irvine Regional Park to buy Grace the pumpkins that she was dying to have. However, there was a pony ride at the park. Guess how many pumpkins we came home with? Zero.

We tried in vain to get everybody to look for a picture. Ava bounded all around or stuck her fingers in her mouth, Grace bossed, and Caleb cooperated only because he can’t really move. At least Caleb’s jack-o-lantern smiled for all the pictures.

I am not sure they got the concept of this. Notice my blue shirt behind Ava. I had to hold her up and she didn’t like her head going through the hole. I swear, family pictures are the bane of my life.

Grace was the first to go on a pony ride. Ava was quite interested enough to climb on the fence and watch.

Grace is pleased as punch, happy as a clam, you pick the cliche. To say the least, she was quite happy to be on her own HHH-orse.

Ava’s pony stopped to take a leak. Ava made sure everybody knew the horse was going poo-poo. She got three laps for $4 (I know, I wish I had the idea to give kids horse rides), but only wanted two of the laps. Grace kindly volunteered to take her third lap.

Here is the album of all the fun (click on the main picture to advance to the next or use the slideshow):
