Pumpkin Patch (Round 2)

We went back to Bishop's Pumpkin Patch a second time with Daddy, this time with a well rested girl who was ready to play!
We ended up spending most of the day there, enjoying everything they had to offer.
First up... pony rides.
I thought I was going to have to stop mid-way through and take Mikenna off the pony, she was crying SO much.
Then, once she calmed down enough to listen to me, and I showed her she could pet the pony, she decided she loved it and started smiling and laughing, telling the pony "good boy!"
I was really proud of her for sticking it out and giving it a shot.
She calmed down and realized everything was ok and then we had a hard time getting her OFF the pony!
I was dying to take Mikenna to the hay jump.
It's basically a bunch of mattresses covered in hay that the kids can play on.
She LOVES trampolines so I thought she would love the hay jump, and I was right!
We came back a few different times and it was harder to pry her away each time.

After lots and lots of jumping, and lots of hay everywhere... we went to visit the animals.
Kenna loved feeding them and couldn't stop giggling each time an animal came near her.
Can you just see the love in her face? 

She did a great job of showing the animals how to eat.
 "See goat, yike dis! Open yours mouf yike dis!"
The alpaca (right? I need a serious touch up on my farm animal knowledge) was her fave.
She repeatedly asked to "ride hims." We stuck to feeding "hims."

We had to take another trip on the choo choo of course, Mikenna loves the pumpkin tunnel and I swear would sit on that train all day!
(Side note... self pics with a DSLR are not an easy task)

After the choo choo ride we ate some lunch and Mikenna spotted Wubzy, her favorite cartoon.
I asked her if she wanted to take a picture with Wubzy and got a "YES PLEEEEAAAASE MOMMY PLEASE!"


Until next year pumpkin patch, we'll miss you!
