Pumpkin Patch 2010

What do you do on a georgeous Saturday morning the day before Halloween? Go to a pumpkin patch - of course! I had taken Natalie there last year to have some pictures done and I knew it would be a fun place to take both girls and grandma today. (While we went, daddy ran 8 miles. For those of you who don't know, Matt is training for his 1st half marathon and I am very excited for him).

Natalie was a mess! There was so much to do she didn't know where to start. Should she go to the pumpkin field, bouncy houses, mazes, hay ride, pony ride or a dozen or so photo op areas? She finally decided on a photo op with Ariel, then the bouncy house, then a photo op with sister, then more exploring. She got to pick out a pumpkin and pay for it herself. Lots of fun! And Grandma was a HUGE help - she pushed Rachel around most of the time which let me keep up with the ever-running 2 year old (who i might add is really starting to have some fun tantrums).

This is a snap shot of Natalie at 2 year and at 1 year.
