Bellevue Berry Farm

We went to the pumpkin patch last Saturday afternoon.  Just like last year, we had a blast at Bellevue Berry Farm.  There's so much for the girls to do and it's half the price of the another popular pumpkin patch in town.  Last year, Aubree was still pretty little so she spent a lot of time sitting in her stroller.  This year, it was fun to see her running around and really enjoying everything. :)  









I love Aubree's face in this picture.  I can't look at it without smiling. :)  As crazy as she can be, she's not that fond of going down slides on her own or swinging too high.  She gets pretty freaked out.  I think she liked having Daddy hold her for it.






I love these...so funny...

"ARRR!"




This is a huge blow up obstacle course that eventually leads to a ginormous slide.  Ayla did it on her own last year...I was a little scared to let Aubree do it, but she REALLY surprised us!



She made it through the course, climbed WAY up high and went down this huge slide with no hesitation.  I couldn't believe it!  She won't even go down tiny slides on her own.  About halfway down, she got this "oh shit" look on her face...


She wanted to go through the obstacle course again but when her little head poked over the top of the slide, she took one look and realized it was the same terrifying slide.  I told her to slide down but she quickly said no and proceeded to climb back down the other side. :)



We were roaming around when we happened to run into my brother, sis-in-law and their kids!  We had no idea they were going to be there...how fun to be able to play with them for a little while!  Ayla loooves and idolizes her cousin, Haylee. :)


We're missing Jayden!




Checking out the animals with Grandpa and Grandma




Here's proof that I was there. ;)

On the hayrack ride to get pumpkins! (And snacking like they haven't eaten in days.)



I think in Aubree-world, "look at Mommy" and "look at the camera" means look anywhere BUT there.




I started to lose Ayla too by the end...

She wanted every one she laid eyes on...

Shhh, don't tell her there's dirt on it...


We ended up with five pretty good sized pumpkins that look so cute in the front yard next to all of our Halloween decorations...and one teeny-tiny pumpkin for Aubree that was used as a bribe to get her in line to pay for the pumpkins and eventually leave to go home.

Fun, fun time...so glad we made the time to go!
