Pumpkin Patch!

I mentioned several days ago that we'd be going to the pumpkin patch this weekend and I haven't heard the end of it from Ella ever since. She keeps reminding me. :) So today we made our own pumpkin in anticipation.

First Ella colored her pumpkin. Ella's not big on coloring unless it's with markers, and even then it looks like she's writing more than drawing. Mommy helped color.

Then Ella practiced ripping up construction paper into little pieces. This is a new skill for Ella and it wasn't easy.

Then she got to enjoy globbing on the glue; her favorite part!

And we stuck down the pieces to cover the pumpkin.

Ella's finished pumpkin.

We even made a stem.
