We started out our evening with our 5th Annual Dinner In A Pumpkin. Allie woke up from her nap just in time for the action. She thought it was a hoot to help me put our dinner in the pumpkin, and especially that we put the pumpkin in the stove. We had Papa and Grandma Deb over for dinner and headed out to the Pumpkin Patch. We met our friends the Hoegers out at the patch and got to work before the sun went down.
We first took the tractor ride out to the petting zoo. We were excited for this new feature (I don't remember this being at Linder Farms in years past). Allie quite enjoyed feeding the animals. Her favorite animals were the goats and sheep; they were right at her level and she could do this all by herself. Allie is into being independant lately and wanting to do EVERYTHING by herself. (This includes her thinking she can wipe herself after pooping in the toilet) Our journey in the petting zoo ended when Allie was feeding the donkey and it bit her finger. Papa was quite creative in creating some distraction and he took her to ride the poney.
Following the petting zoo, we set out to find the perfect pumpkins. I ended up loosing my husband in the gourd patch, but Allie and I were able to find the perfect pumpkins for the 3 of us.

Allie was not at all afraid of these animals. There were horses, emu's, (which freaked me out) a donkey, a crazy zebra horse, and lots of goats. I think this is why she ended up with a bite from the donkey

Allie came walking toward me with this pumpkin saying, "It to heavy!"
