We got a late start this year on selecting the perfect pumpkin to carve for Halloween. By the time we actually got to the patch, all that were left were the sad, dejected pumpkins, and not many of them. Rylann managed to find one that didn't already have holes in it, or soft rotting sides, so all was not lost. As of today, we still have not carved the pumpkin, but we could if we wanted to, and that's all that matters, right? I don't think we actually carved last year's pumpkin either, now that I think of it.
Besides, we all know that that the real reason Rylann loves the pumpkin patch is for the pony ride and the petting zoo. Rylann was all smiles while riding her pony, while Tristan was concentrating very, very hard, and it showed. By the end of the ride, he was a seasoned cowboy, and cried when he had to get down.
Tristan is a funny character. He has a newly found talent of quacking like a duck, not saying "Quack quack", but actually making the duck noise, like Donald Duck. It's pretty comical, especially when he combines squatting with the quacking, with the occasional head bob. Anyway, my reason for writing this is that he quacks anytime he sees any kind of animal. He saw the goats in the petting zoo pen, and he clawed his way down to the ground and started quacking like crazy. I'm still laughing.

Rylann was already giddy at the thought of a pony.
Tristan loved bouncing on the pumpkins.
See?
This one feels just right.
His search continues.

Goat time!
