What a happy kid!
Bennett was a bit reluctant at first to get down and walk the maze but he quickly warmed up and we followed his lead through the maze. We found a couple of dead ends but made it out with the help of our navigator.
Bennett and I stopped to pose for a quick photo.
After the hay maze, Bennett took a ride on the pumpkin train. He really enjoyed being pulled by the tractor. This kid is still crazy for trains, even pumpkin trains.
After Bennett's ride on the pumpkin train we made our way to the giant jumping pillow. This was the first year Bennett was old enough to jump on the pillow. He had a great time bouncing, falling, and sliding down the giant pillow.
Bennett had a hard time climbing up the side of the pillow without sliding back down. He finally ripped off his socks and crawled up the side.
Once he figured out how to climb up the side he had a great time bouncing. I was a bit nervous with the older kids but the attendants did a great job monitoring and allowing time for the little kids.
As you can tell Bennett had a great time and eventually we had to drag him off.
These two pictures are from Bennett's pony ride. He loved seeing the horses and at one point he told me he wanted to be a horse for Halloween. I paused and apparently gave him a look and he said "Nope I want to be an owl. Trick or Treat, hooty hoo!" Thank goodness because I have already started making an owl.
After the pony ride we boarded the tractor for our hay ride to find out perfect pumpkins.
Bennett and half of daddy's face posing for a picture on the hay ride. I promise there is a better picture of Bennett and Graham. (See below).

Graham and I have one rule when picking pumpkins. You have to be able to carry it yourself. And while we have never really enforced this rule in years passed, this year it was in full effect. Bennett knows and understands this rule because as Graham and I were looking for our pumpkins he kept asking "Can you carry it, Mommy?" He tried picking this pumpkin up and finally said "it's too big!"
We had a fantastic day at the pumpkin patch. This is truly one of my favorite family traditions. Stay tuned for our pumpkin decorating/carving.

Apples
Graham is bracing himself for the flying branch.
Proud of his apple!
Pretending to take a bite. No, we didn't let him eat it until we washed it.
The three B's!

Summer Fun!
However, between the here are there of our busy summer, we have been able to enjoy some summer favorites.
Enjoying some time with Scott's. Bennett really enjoys Chloe (and all of her cool toys).
