Vala's Pumpkin Patch

Vala's Pumpkin Patch was fun and relatively warm. We had fun getting pumpkins from the field, seeing the not-so-scary haunted walk-through, jumping on the new jumping "mats", riding the pedal cars, playing in the hay jump/tractor area, etc., etc.


Here is their aunt Alix with the girls in from of some pumpkins. It was fun to have her along.

Carmen is concentrating hard on driving this stationary tractor. I can't believe how fun this is to children.

How much have you grown? How big are you now. Very important to know if you are under the age of, say, 16!

This is the wagon ride out to the fields to pick pumpkins. They drove us WAY out this time. We were past the house on the hill (if you have been there). Some guy said they use this to house teenagers for many educational projects during the year. We also saw the pig races. I never before realized that the pigs they race are all rare breeds.

Kaitlin is jumping into some hay here. Sooooo fun. You see her landing spot in the next picture.

Surprise!

Surprise!
Kaitlin and Archie came home with this surprise from the grocery store. Kaitlin REALLY wanted to give them to me. She is very sweet and thoughtful like that (and so is Archie to take her with him and let her do this). Tulips remind me of Seattle a lot. Every spring about two hours north of Seattle, there is a tulip festival we liked to see.
