And an Equally Sunny Sunday!

Since we had another beautiful day yesterday, we decided it was a good day to go to the pumpkin patch.

We went to the same place as we did last year and the year before....Powers Farm Market. Like expected, it was very busy, but the place is so big that you really don't notice just how busy it really is.

When we first got there, Avery wanted to check out the animals. She really liked the goats! And can I say-look how cute she is with her ponytail in?! LOVE IT!

The little white goat let her pet him a few times!

Then we had to check out the big tee-pees they have set up. The first one has a ton of carved pumpkins inside so we spent a few minutes in there looking at all of them:









After exploring the tee-pees, Avery wanted juice so we ran into the store and got her an apple cider. Then she wanted to go on the "tractor"....or the hayride they have there. Let me tell ya-for the 3 of us it was $12 to go on and the line was super long. What a racket they have there! Wow!



Here's Avery waiting for us to start the ride:




Her and Daddy ready for the hayride!



First we started out in some area loaded with bats hanging all around:




Then lots of ghosts:



And scarecrows:



This scarecrow was enormous:



More ghosts:



It was a cute ride-went through a cemetery, saw some broken down cars and tractors, then it ended with a dark tunnel. Avery wasn't scared at all which I was thankful for-one little kid behind us was afraid the entire time!



After the hayride, we picked out our pumpkins and got some treats (cider and popcorn). Unfortunately, Avery wouldn't let me take any photos of her in the pumpkin patch like we did in previous years. I'm a little bummed about that.



Last evening, we went to my in-laws' for dinner to celebrate my Father-in-law's birthday. We had a yummy dinner and Avery had fun seeing her cousins and Grandparents!!
