Pumpkin Patch fun

There’s a pumpkin patch that is on the way to my job that I saw last year and this year and every time I pass it I think to myself that I want to go there. Well, today I finally got to go! It was so much cuter than I thought it would be and I’m already planning on making my parents visit next year and taking them! I was all ready to go digging for my cute winter coat and scarves and then I looked at the forecast for the day – 87 degrees! And yes I have my child in a long sleeve t shirt and pants. His Aunt Ali bought him a rocket ship t shirt and as per his new found love for Little Einsteins, he HAD to wear it. I had a short sleeve t shirt in my purse as back up. :)

We won nicest parents EVER award for a few minutes when we let Oliver go on this slide.

That, my friends, is the look of pure joy.
We won WORST parents ever award a short time later when his turn was over.

Getting Oliver to look at pictures is almost impossible. Most of the time he just isn’t in the mood, and when he does look he moves before my camera can take the picture. :(

The next part was the petting zoo and Oliver was in HEAVEN. HE kept saying “Hi chicken!” over and over.

I tried taking some pictures but it was too dark and I was too far away from them, so as I light them tomorrow night I’ll take some close ups!

P.S. Sorry the pictures are so huge! "Small" is smaller than I want and apparently there's a bigger difference between small and medium sizes than I realized, but oh well.

  2. Loved the pumpkin patch pictures. Very precious. We don't think the photos were big. They were easy to see.
