the pumpkin patch

we made a random pumpkin patch stop on saturday and greatly underestimated its popularity with lily.  it was not a pretty scene when it was time to go home.  a repeat visit with more time to spare is definitely needed (and already on the calendar).  

she found her pumpkin and did not put it
down the entire time we were wandering the site.

model alpaca.  this boy knew how to find his light.
and i'm pretty sure he was "smizing" at me.

"it's buddy the sheep!"
(lily's sitter's husband has a stuffed sheep in his truck named buddy.  lily is in love.)

"it's a donkey, like eyore!"
(winnie the pooh & co are very popular)

the train was a popular spot.  she wanted to hang out
here for days.

cutest little conductor ever.

leaving the pumpkin patch was pretty traumatic.
