Michael Jon and I are off to the pumpkin patch this morning! We have been going for at least 3 years now. Debbi told us about it and every time we have gone it’s been a great time. The Big Orange Pumpkin Farm is a nice place to visit to feed the animals, have a picnic, go on a hay ride, pick a pumpkin, and run around the farm and have fun!
I’m off to meet up with Debbi and her Mom….I made Michael Jon a cute new hat to wear for pictures today, here is hoping he actually wears it!
**We are back! It was a beautiful fall day, temps were in the low 80’s. In the sun it seemed a little hot, but in the shade was wonderful! We had a picnic lunch and the kids ran around and got their bottoms nice and dirty. We took the manditory hay ride and wondered where the heck Farmer Rick was! He was rolled up at the end in a bale of hay! All we saw was his legs and feet sticking out! We asked Nana and Michael Jon where he went? Did he go to Wal-Mart? NoooOo..haha.
Let’s see, what else did we do? Ah yes..we watched a long horn cow eat two small pumpkins and her calf trying to have a snack while she kicked the baby out of the way. Basically, Mama’s eatin’ and don’t bug me kid! We took lots of pictures of Michael and Nana on hay, and around the farm. We had a lovely day, and poor Michael was so tired, while we were looking for our pumpkin in the patch, he said, “Mama, I love you, it’s been a really long day!” He wanted me to pick him up and carry him. That option was out, but we did find a cute little pumpkin to take home and took a few last pics.
Here is Michael on our way to the farm, with his nifty hat on!
OMG, LOVE That picture! What a cutie! We had so much fun with y’all today! Let’s not even think that next year will be our last…. Can we both cry together over that? It was a GREAT day!
Yes, we can both cry together over that and then go to lunch and shopping, get our toes done and then …?? 😀
