pumpkin patch

all the kidlets under this big scarecrow thing. poor Clara just fell down and is screaming her head off...

Clara and I got to go hang out at an Awesome pumpkin patch with new friends from church last week. It was on a farm and had tons on fun activities for the kids like "corn boxes" instead of sand boxes, a real corn maze (which we did not go in - we could lose a toddler pretty easy in there...), ginormous pretend farm equipment to play on, cool tire horses and ANIMALS - the highlight, of course.

Clara and Holly petting a pig. Have you guys ever pet a pig? It was Very Strange - soft and prickly at the same time!

petting sheep and goats - I was amazed that she wasn't scared at all!

ah, sweet Clara

the tire horsey

the corn box - Clara went Nuts for this - rolling around in it forever

they had a mini racetrack for scooters and tricycles - all farm themed, of course

a lot of the kids were bigger and faster than Clara - at one point she held the whole group up! totally oblivious, so sweet.
