It's the Great Pumpkin, Maggie Skelton! {Cleveland Tennessee Lifestyle Photography}

It's the Great Pumpkin, Charlie Brown is on television tonight. I decided it was about time you saw pictures from Maggie's pumpkin patch adventure this year!
As soon as we arrived at Guthrie Farms, Maggie saw this hay bale decorated as a spider. She said, "Yook! It's a spider bacuum cleaner!"

When we went to the petting barn, Maggie waved and greeted every animal.


She sure loves her Papa......and I think he might love her too! Just a little.

Maggie found a long blade of grass to tickle Papa.

Then, he tickled her. I have a whole series of this-I LOVE them!
Then, Maggie decided to tickle the calf......and all it wanted was to eat the grass.

Fun times with Uncle Wesey!
Here's a little slideshow of our fun trip to the pumpkin patch!
I hope you all have a great Halloween! Friday I don't have school and we are doing the McMurray family session at a pumpkin patch!

It's The Great Pumpkin, Maggie Skelton!

For Dean's birthday/Denise really wanted to take Maggie to the pumpkin patch, the Skeltons all loaded up and drove to Riceville to the Guthrie Farms Pumpkin Patch.
Martha asked me the day before, "Why do you want to go to the pumpkin patch?" to which I replied, "Have you never BEEN to a pumpkin patch!?!?!"
Pumpkin patches are my all time favorite fall tradition! I get excited every year when fall rolls around just thinking about it!

We started off in the petting barn. Mind you, Maggie is going to be a farm girl, so cows are nothing new to her. She was so excited to see all of the animals-she saw the calves and yelled "HEY, COWS!" and waved. Priceless.

We continued around to the other animals including pigs, goats, a horse (to whom Maggie screamed "HEY, COW!"), a donkey (to whom Maggie said, "neigh, neigh"), a miniature horse, bunnies, baby ducks, and chicks.
She loved feeling of the bunnies.

We tried my first corn maze. It was interesting. If it had been darker I would have been scared. Here's a Skelton Family photo in the corn maze minus myself.

There were friendly signs that reminded us not to pick the corn, but this corn cob was on the ground. :)

After the corn maze, the guys (& Maggie) walked across the road to look at the bulls. Maggie threw some hay over the fence and said "EAT IT!" to the bulls.

I love this shot of Maggie & her Nana on the hayride to the pumpkin patch.
Pumpkin time! Maggie saw the pumpkins and said something about tomatoes. Then she got to the pumpkin and said, "Aaa-ple!"

The girls!






Maggie loved celebrating Papa's birthday at the pumpkin patch!
We (Jana, Maggie, & I) decided this should be an annual Skelton family tradition!
