Smashing Pumpkins

Well, almost. This first pic was taken the moment we got out of the car and Hannah stepped foot in the pumpkin patch. She ran over, picked up this large, heavy pumpkin, held it up for a photo and then threw it to the ground. Logan & I both winced as we imagined the thing breaking open. Good thing she's short and the fall wasn't too far. The pumpkin survived & we walked away quickly hoping no one saw. Whoops!

So, we really thought she'd love picking a pumpkin. She didn't want any of them because "they are dirty!" She actually threw a fit over it. Even after telling her we'd wash it at home, she still wasn't having it and wanted to leave. Next time, I'm just going to Wally World and getting one out of the big cardboard box.

After we forced the child to have a dirty pumpkin, of course causing her to cry more (we're terrible), we made our way over to a small carnival next to the patch. Hannah had a blast jumping in the bouncy house. They had other small games like basketball, bean bag toss and fishing for the cheapest kazoos you've ever encountered (they didn't even work - I thought kazoos were already cheap but these were E-CON-O-MY). Oh well. It was entertaining for a toddler.

Here's the pumpkin we forced her to have. She likes it now, thank goodness.
