Pumpkins, Pumpkins, Everywhere

We went to the pumpkin patch this weekend up in Las Cruces.  Matt is going to the field in a couple of weeks and it was NICE out this weekend (it only reached 71 degrees!), so we headed on up.  It was a fabulous time.  They have so much to do at Lyle’s Farms.  There is old fashion tricycles, hula hoops (which Gracie rocked), painting pumpkins, tons of little play areas, slides, hay rides, and more.  Gracie was a happy little girl to say the least.  The pictures are random and in no particular order.

Gracie rode on her first pony ride.  She absolutely loved it, her pony’s name was Snoopy!

As I have said before, we really don’t get into Halloween in our household.  However, we now have a little girl who loves to play dress up, so we give a little.  Having said that, we did a little project with our feet.  We made ghosts….Gracie decided the ghosts needed clothes, so she drew them some.  Most of them are happy ghosts too…this girl just cracks me up.

We also decorated our pumpkins tonight.  It is early, but like I said Matt leaves for the field and next weekend we have a pretty full weekend.  So we decided to go ahead and carve.  Matt did a great job on the Jessie from Toy Story.

And since you can never get enough of 3 year old fashion….check out Gracie and her attitude pose!  She loves her new boots.  Gotta love her!
