Pumpkin Patch!

We had a great day at Tanaka Farms with friends!

Getting a photo of Everett is like trying to catch a gnat with a fishing net, but I tried!

Me and sissy...

Trying to get all the kids sitting down and looking the same way in a photo is always hilarious and exhausting...

So we went for an action shot...

King of the mountain!  Notice the little red head photo bombing our pics- haha!

The fam...

We then headed over to the petting zoo.  Keep in mind, both my kids are terrified of petting farm animals (but love them from behind a fence), and in fact, at Zoomars they won't even go in the pen with the itty bitty rabbits and guina pigs.  However, Everett said he wanted to go in and pet the animals, and he did great!

He only cried a few times when some of the bigger animals charged him.  Ella refused to go in until her friends said they were going in.  She SWORE up and down that she would go in, not cry and pet the animals if we let her go in.  I told Gary not to buy her a ticket because no matter what she says, she will not do it.  He gave in, and this is what happened within 3 seconds of entering...

Not only was she hysterical, but she got Everett all riled up as well!  Stay tuned for Christmas...she has also sworn that this year, she wants to sit on Santa's lap.  Riiiiiight.

After a long morning, Gary took Everett home for his nap while the rest of us went out to lunch- Ella was extremely happy that she got to ride in Ryan's car...

Silly monekys...
