I haaaaaatttee pumpkins!

I have been really wanting to take Abby to this great little (actually BIG) pumpkin patch farm out in Marble Falls, TX called Sweet Berry Farms.  We finally got the chance this past weekend and we were so excited. We drive the full 50 minutes all the way out there only to realize the following:

1. We need tennis shoes (or boots...anything closed toe).
2. We need sunscreen - it was HOT and sunny.
3. We need to bring water to drink (though they had some awesome strawberry lemonade there).
4. Make sure to charge your camera battery prior to making the big trip for your daughter's first time at a pumpkin patch.  Dead camera batteries do you no good.
5. We need to bring our Bob Stroller.  Our little Combi was no match for the 18lb pumpkin that we made it carry.  Or the dirt/grass area where we had to walk.

6. Abby hates pumpkins.  And grass.  And hay.  And really anything touching her.

Maybe this Spring when we go back out to pick our own strawberries, she will have a better time.
