Heigh Ho, Heigh Ho...

off to Iowa we go! Actually we went to Iowa this past weekend to visit my sister, brother-in-law and of course little Shea.

So as you can see the dynamic duo was reunited!!

We were busy, busy with the cute twosome. First we hit up the local pumpkin patch. It was perfect for a couple of young toddlers.

As you can see, Layla measured in when we arrived. Okay, maybe I just had to show you her legwarmers. They make a jack-o-lantern face when she puts her leg together, I have had my eye on them since last fall!

Next up, the slides. Layla loved the big slides. Shea was wearing mittens that his mama put on him and they may have put a small damper on his slide experience :-)

This was a cute little tractor area, and Shea and Layla of course had to try it out.

They went on to pick up, drop, pile and roll some pumpkins.

Next, Shea enjoyed looking at the ponies, but didn't want to get too close. He did get to go back for a second peek later in the visit.

I tried to get a pretty picture of Layla by the mums and Layla decided to dance to the pumpkin patch music instead :-)

We couldn't leave the pumpkin patch without a hayride! BRRR!

(Do you think Layla is getting a tooth?)

Time to leave! Layla and Shea got a wagon ride out with Cassie's birdhouse gourds.

Think that was a big day? Not even close to being over yet!! Next we went to Jumpin' Jane's, an indoor inflatable (bouncy houses) playcenter and arcade. Shea (and Jamie and Ryan, ahem) bounced and bounced. Layla was very nervous at first but ended up warming up and really enjoying herself.

Maybe a little too much...
