The Perfect Pumpkin Patch

This morning, as soon as the hubbs got home from rounding at the hospital, we donned our orange and black, hopped in the car, and headed out to the pumpkin patch!

This was definitely the best pumpkin patch I've ever been to! Fun activities were around every corner, the mountains surrounded us, and the temperature was heavenly! The first order of business, as dictated by Big Bro, was to buy a huge bag of kettle corn.

I did not enjoy any of the yummy popcorn, because the hubbs brought a huge coffee and muffin home for me this morning, and I swear I'm still stuffed! No telling how many calories were in my breakfast today!

Poor Little Bro didn't get any popcorn. He wasn't too thrilled.

Isn't he just the cutest!? I can't wait until he's walking! He's at that awkward stage where he really wants to get down and roam around, but I don't want him to get filthy dirty crawling everywhere. Just means more snuggles for Momma!

After the toddler consumed an insane amount of kettle corn, he was ready to go!

The first attraction he spotted was a big John Deere tractor pulling a bunch of little cow carts. He loved every "bumpy" (his words) second of it! [You can watch a video of it on my Instagram--embryan487.]

Next, we spied a spider web! Yikes! Of course the boys had to go play in that!

Next, the toddler went on a cool tunnel slide that went into the ground and back out! Daddy and baby boy watched the toddler!

And then, it was off to the next adventure!

A giant bouncy bubble!

Of course my animal-loving child had been wanting to go pet and feed the animals from the moment we arrived. We had to oblige. (Me, in my head: Must secure hand sanitizer. Germs. Everywhere. Cringing. Oh Lord, where is the sanitizer!?!?!?) 

Some copious amounts of hand sanitizer later, we were off again!

This time, to the corn maze! The toddler wanted to do it "BY MYSELF!" So, we let him. He loved it!

We had so much fun at the pumpkin patch! This was one of those ooper-super-duper rare times when after the money had been spent, and we were tired and cranky and loading back into the car, the toddler was actually still saying he was having fun! Praise be! ;)

The pumpkin he picked out!
