Last week Elena's school went on a field trip to a local pumpkin patch (actually dusty field filled with pumpkins). Elena was really excited that Caroline got to ride in our car. We all clapped to Springsteen during the drive (Ok, they clapped, I drove). The kids had fun on the tractor hay ride (elena bit uncertain, as she usually is about new things) and then it was to the no-pet petting zoo (the people need a little dutch treatment as elena proclaimed - but I could pet Bella and Dona! Yes dear, but this is america and they are fearful of lawsuits if the pony bites your finger off). Then the kid all hunted pumkins (or figured out that if you start them rolling the would knock into each other and start an impressive cascade down the hill and all the adults run after them to try to stop them before they smacked into the fence.)
Here are Elena's new buddies.
