Fun with Dad at the pumpkin patch

Since Braydon wasn't going to be home for Halloween, we wanted to make sure that we enjoyed each other before he left and keep everything as normal as it usually is.  Around this time of year we always enjoy taking the kids to the pumpkin patch to pick out a pumpkin to carve.  We headed to the same place we go every year, Bellevue Berry and Pumpkin Patch, which isn't too far from our house and isn't as busy as some of the other places around Omaha.  It's perfect for our family.

This year we ended up taking the kids right after Landon went to school, so there weren't very many people there.  It worked out fabulous!  We picked out pumpkins and walked around and enjoyed the scenery.  The kids got to run around and burn off some steam.  We had a lot of fun!

This year there were a lot more animals than they had in the past.  Sydney really enjoyed seeing the animals, and Landon could've cared less.  He just wanted to hold Dad's hand.

Apparently this pumpkin-loving pig lives in the right place. :)

Sydney was very facinated with the chickens.  I had to tell her to stop poking her fingers through the chicken wire cause those chickens were licking their chops!

Landon didn't want to have anything to do with the scary pirate's cave!  Dad tried to walk Sydney through, but she started saying "out" almost as soon as she got in there.

Sydney's a brave girl.  Even through she didn't go all the way through, she did better than me!

Walking through the ghost town.

Taking turns on the tire horse.  It's actually attached to a long wire thing and they "ride" the horse down the wire.  Landon didn't want to do it at first (in his normal Landon fashion), but once he was on it he didn't seem to mind. :)

Sydney had to stop and say "moo" to the cows :)

Landon made it to the top of the pirate ship this year!  He didn't want to climb the weird ladder to get up there, but he did it with a little pushing. :) He enjoyed walking around for a minute and then wanted to get down.  At least he tried. 

Sydney lost her seat in the stroller to the pumpkins.  The kids were excited to pick out their own pumpkin and picked up several before we decided which ones we were taking home. :)
