Lynds Fruit Farm - Pumpkinpalooza and a Pumpkin Patch


After the Apple Orchard on Saturday, we drove a crossed the street to the Nationwide Children’s Hospital Pumpkinpalooza! Sophia had soo much fun.
 
I tried to get a picture of Soph and I to see how tall we were but she wasn't having it:
 
 
 I don't know what these cars are actually called but Soph has rode them acouple times already with me holding her. Now acouple weeks ago when she rode in them it was a tight squeeze with me holding her. So I bought my ticket and tried to get on with her only to have the guy tell me I'm too big and only kids ride lol! I was soooo nervous to let Soph ride by herself but she loved it. She kept waving and smiling and holding on and when the guy told them to put their arms up (no hands) she was the only kid to put her arms up lol! My little daredevil!




 They had a petting farm. Soph checking out the horse:
 Petting the goat:
 Rabbit:
 Chicken:

 And the duck:
 They also had acouple bounce houses which Soph loves and when she was in the second one it was her time to get out and she refused. A little boy had to take her hand and escort her out lol!

 We also went on a hay ride. The only family picture of the day and Soph wasn't looking:

 The driver stopped at the Apple Orchard and let us pick an apple to eat. I believe that was Soph's second apple in less than an hour. Can you tell she loved sitting on the hay like a big girl?
 They had face painting and Soph wanted a pumpkin:

 After the pumpkinpalooze we drove to the pumpkin patch. I've never been to a real pumpkin patch where you have to pull the pumpkins because they are attached. It was fun but a lot of work to get the pumpkins lol!

 Soph and El looking for the perfect pumpkin:






 Soph liked the dirty ones:


 After all that fun...it was time to go potty again lol! The joys of potty training!
Saturday was a  jammed packed day of fun activities!

Lynds Fruit Farm - Apple Orchard

Saturday morning we got up, got ready and took Soph to Lynds Fruit Farm. First we went to the apple orchard.
 
But...before we could go apple picking, I brought Soph's potty chair since the drive to the Lynds was about 40 minutes. So we put the chair in the back of my car and she sat on it and went potty lol! She looked through the Toys R Us ad while she went.
 

 Soph loved picking apples. She also liked eating them.
