Pumpkin Patch~2011

Last evening was the annual daycare pumpkin patch trip.  The weather was gorgeous plus being a weeknight, made for a perfect evening at the patch.  Matt, Ryah, and I had some time before the daycare pot-luck started, so we visited some of the exhibits.  We fed the goats & llamas (which Ryah really didn't get too excited about), visited Storybook barn (which was cute for the kids), listened to the barnyard band (Ryah loved watching the stuffed animals play the instruments), and this year Ryah was able to experience her first pony ride! 
The potluck was great.  It is always nice to chat with the other parents, and good to see the ones that you don't get to see all the time.  All the kids were so well behaved. 

(notice the crying kid in the front row?  ha ha ha)

Where is Cinderella?

Not the best picture, but the only one that turned out-  Ryah was not thrilled at all of riding the pony.  She sat on him for about 30 seconds and then had a death grip on me. Thankfully we were able to end the ride early.  Maybe next year she will be more comfortable.

She liked this pony much better!

AND: Just for grins & giggles:  Here are a more pictures of Ryah that I took this past week:

Eating yogurt-  she prefers to use her hands and not the spoon.

notice the yogurt in her eyelashes?  hahaha

story time with daddy-  she is obsessed with the photo books that I have made
