We had a fun day at the pumpkin patch last weekend, especially me, snapping pictures away of the kids. Sebastian, currently 2 years old, is learning about Halloween…well actually all he really knows is “orange” (pumpkins) and that he doesn’t like anything scary. If you follow us on snapchat (mimi3685) you know what I mean…we went costume shopping and poor Sebastian was shaking in fear at all the Halloween decor. He’ll laugh about it when he’s older. HA!

Sebastian loved the pumpkin farm! He had so much fun walking through Buckelew farm and picking his own pumpkin. He loves the dirt, so he was particularly keen on walking the farm and kicking his feet around. Alex, turning one in a few days, didn’t want to touch the pumpkins and showed zero interest in taking pictures. He was just focused on trying to get us to let him crawl on the dirt! Sorry buddy, not today.

We really enjoyed the experience of walking through the farm and soaking in the beautiful views Arizona has to offer. Something we hadn’t experienced before. It was actually a perfect day for the pumpkin patch since there was a bit of overcast, we were just hoping it wouldn’t rain, at least not until we were done having fun.

As we were about to purchase tickets for the pony rides and petting zoo it started to rain, so we didn’t get a chance to enjoy those activities. Sebastian was in the stroller saying “rain, rain, rain” as we sprinted to the car.

The next day we had family Halloween craft night. Daddy and I carved a pumpkin and tried to get Sebastian to scoop out it’s guts but he just looked at us like we were crazy. Instead, he was busy painting his “orange,” preparing to transform it into a dog. Alex was happy in his high chair playing with Halloween stickers and trying to eat them.

We are looking forward to Halloween and trick or treating. It will be the first for the boys!
