A couple of weekends ago we went to Eckerts to find the great pumpkin. The weather was awesome and we went with the Purcells. We couldn't have asked for a better day!!

Of course I look like the psycho mom with the video camera in hand, camera on my back, and a 20 something pound child on my hip!! No wonder my back hurts all the time!!

Grant and Nolan finding the perfect pumpkin to destroy!

My little Charlie Brown. In early summer Madison told me Grant looked like Charlie Brown. I asked her why she thought that, and she told me it was because he was sad all the time! I think this was before he really started to interact with her!! Too funny!

Madison wanted to get her picture with Nolan as well!

Family fun!!

Madison looking for just the right pumpkin.

I think we have two pretty good pumpkins already!! But Madison did do a great job picking her pumpkin out!

Madison also enjoyed the rides and bounce house.
Weeeeeeeee!!!

But the best part of the whole day was the ponies. Madison saw the ponies and begged to ride them. Mark and I were pretty sceptical that she would
actually ride one. But she hopped right on and said she was
Rapunzel!!
Rapunzel is the princess from the Disney movie Tangled. Madison is all about Disney Princesses right now. Daddy and Grant making sure she didn't fall off the first couple of rounds. I think Grant wanted to ride too!

She looks like a natural!

Princess Madison waving to her people! She even named her
pony Maximus, just like the horse in the movie.

The best $5.00 we spent all day!

What a cutie!! She loved it!! Smile from ear to ear!

Mark packed the
stroller with the
pumpkins at the end of the day. I thought it was pretty cute, the big one that Madison picked out on her side, and the small one for Grant on his side of the stroller. What a perfect day!! Can't wait to go back in November. I signed Madison up for "Princess Party". She gets to meet a princess and dress up as her favorite princess. I can't wait to see her face and reaction!

Thanks to the
Purcells for coming along on a wonderful day!
