pumpkin pickin'

Over the weekend we went to a local family farm for their little fall festival. Each weekend, they have a different "main event" and this weekend was a tractor pull, which couldn't have been more perfect. Lincoln LOVES tractors! We didn't see the actual tractor pull, but it didn't matter because we still got to look at all of them. Here are just a few:
It was so cute because Lincoln got excited about a couple of them. We don't know why he chose those particular ones, but here they are:
While we were there, all of the owners started to load up their tractors to take home. This super nice man asked if Lincoln wanted a ride and took him on his tractor for a minute.
It's so funny....when Lincoln gets SUPER excited about something, he doesn't show it. You know how in sports when a player makes an awesome play, and they don't show any emotion and you wonder how they keep a straight face? That's Lincoln for you. It's too funny.
After seeing all the tractors, we went on a hay ride! It was super fun. Lincoln kept going "Woo!" and "Whee!" the whole time. We got a good view of the pumpkin patch during the ride. Even with all those pumpkins, it was already super picked over. Crazy!
Our ride:
After the hay ride, we were off to pick our pumpkins!

I was excited because the prices were about the same as what you'd pay at a store to get your pumpkins, and it's so much more fun to pick your own!
We had such a fun time!

what a fun day! Madden is totally the same way, about keeping a straight face even when he's really excited about doing something :) He could be on a crazy wild fun roller coaster, and he still won't crack a smile. But I know he's having the time of his life. Its so funny!
