Pumpkin Festival

This past weekend we went to Prescott to go to a pumpkin festival at Freeman Farms in Chino Valley, AZ. Jackson has been waiting to go with Grandma and Papa to get pumpkins, and he was not disappointed! It was a little warmer than we would have liked, but other than that we had a great time.

Brooklyn was so good and content to be pushed in her stroller. She hung out with Papa and listened to some music, while clapping along! She loves music. And it was great for Jackson to just be able to go while sister sat.

He loved the merry-go-round. He rode it at least 3 times, but was still a little disappointed when we had to go get pumpkins and he couldn't ride it again.


And of course he had to get a jack-o-lantern on his face. He sat so still , but did confuse the artist when he said he wanted a green pumpkin. It's so funny how everything has to be his favorite color! The artist assured him it would have green leaves!!

He was a little leery at first to pet the animals, but Papa held his hand and showed him they were nice animals. 

The hay ride was great. They even let us keep Brooklyn in her  stroller, which was awesome.

Jackson always has to "drive" a tractor when he sees one he can climb on!

The train ride was so fun. During it, they got "held" up by robbers, but they gave the kids candy instead of steeling anything! Such a cute idea.

These John Deere bikes were great. Such a fun idea, and of course getting him off  them was a challenge, but when we lured him with pumpkins picking and fresh apples to eat he happily got off!
