Pumpkin Pickin' 2009

On Sunday, we took a trip up to Lombardi Ranch in Saugus for some pumpkin patch fun. It's only about 20 minutes away from our house. It was a bit windy and rather hot but we went early, had a great time and wore our Halloween shirts anyway! Here I am with Mama picking out my traditional little pumpkin. Last year Dada drew me on my pumpkin complete with my two little front teeth. I wonder what he'll draw this year...
And here I am meeting a big horsey. Nice, horsey...
Here I am looking for big pumpkins. I had my eye on a big green one...Mama and Dada couldn't figure it out. I guess I liked the green ones so we brought one home.
While there, we even took a train ride through the corn and sunflowers to see the scarecrows. I loved it and kept saying "whoo, whoo" the whole time. Mama thought I was adorable.
And I even went to the petting zoo. As soon as we got inside, I said "baaa, baaa." Pretty smart, huh? I loved petting the goats. And I was super gentle, too.
This goat loved Dada. I wonder why...
We also saw cows (of course I said "moo, moo" to them), chickens, an ostrich, a llama, donkeys, turkeys, pigs, bunnies, geese and ducks. It was amazing!
I thought I'd leave you with a shot of Mama and me in a sea of pumpkins...
...a cool shot of the boys on some hay stacks...
...and a funny photo of me! OK, I think I'm officially ready for Halloween...now I just have to figure out what tricks and treats are. Stay tuned...

Great job on the pumpkin shopping! Who ever thought of making a jack-o-lantern with a green pumpkin, before YOU I mean! Very independent thinking, big guy!
BOOOO! ~meg
