Family Farm Fun

Today we went to a local pumpkin patch. It started off being a little chilly, but it warmed up towards the end.

We rode the hayride to the pumpkin patch where we each got to pick our own pumpkin. I helped Kiahna get hers. Niah and Aliya were very picky--they were one of the last ones to be done selecting their pumpkins.

We also got to pet several animals in the petting barn. The girls were a lot more brave then I wanted to be!

After all that fun, we rode the carousel. We also rode the train around the 101 acre farm, but I didn't take any pictures of that.

We spent almost an hour at the pedal-car race track. That was a lot of fun! Kiahna never did get the hang of the pedals. I pushed her around once, and then told her that was it! She just sat on the car the rest of the time, "pretending" she was racing her sisters.

Kiahna and Aliya loved digging in the sand and getting dirty.

Niah and Kiahna wanted to sit on the horse, but Aliya preferred the wooden train. Even though we were only at the farm for 3 hours, we ended up having a WHOLE DAY of fun!

Happy Birthday, Ballerina Princess!

Kiahna turned 3 today. This was a fun birthday, because this is the first birthday that she's really been aware of what it is and what it all entails. She had a Diego Princess party (very original!), and she enjoyed the whole thing. She loved every present she got, and each present had its own special reaction.

Happy 8th Anniversary to Us!

Today is our 8th anniversary. Kiahna and Aliya recently saw some of our wedding pictures from our album (we finally got to unpack it!), and Kiahna started crying because she wasn't there. She was really upset that she didn't get to go! I tried to explain to the both of them that they weren't even born yet, but it didn't go very far. They didn't understand why Niah got to go, but they didn't! I guess this is one of those things that will not be understood until later on in life.
