Sweet Berry Farm

Later on in the evening after the Zilker experience, the three of us drove to Sweet Berry Farm in Marble Falls to meet Kristin, Josh and Ethan for an evening of activities at the pumpkin patch. We're lucky that Josh's firm rents out the place each year and we enjoy a private party!

Sophie always gets so thrilled when she sees Ethan. They play so well together and she's always talking about him! It was even better tonight -- they could run through the pumpkins, get their faces painted, do arts & crafts, take pony rides, heat hot dogs over an open fire, and enjoy a hay ride. I really like it out there and love the time with the Schencks!

It was so easy to snap several cute pictures of the two of them in the pumpkins. I love how they both are sitting back, chillin', with their arms propped up:














So, after our success with taking pictures of the cousins, I decided luck should be in my favor with getting Sophie to pose by herself in the patch. I had already tried on a few other occasions with not much luck. Third time was not the charm, as Sophie obviously decided she was done with "pumpkin posing" and was quite bored of my attempts! One of these years, I'm going to get a good picture...














Today was another "first". Sophie went on a pony ride all by herself! She held on to the saddle horn with no assistance from us and around the farm she went! We were so proud of her:
