the pumpkin patch

 one night last week our next door neighbor brought over some pumpkins and asked if we wanted them. um heck yes. free pumpkins? dont mind if i do. when parker woke up the next morning and saw them, you would have thought he had died and gone to heaven. he was SO excited. they kept him entertained all day long. 
there is one other BIG pumpkin she brought and he likes to tell me "tiny pumpkin, tiny pumpkin, BIIIIG pumpkin!"

i thought parker was at a fun age last year for all the holidays, but this year is even better. he is loving everything related to halloween so i knew he would LOVE the pumpkin patch. we went on saturday and the weather was BEAUTIFUL! 

we got to go on a hayride out to the pumkpin patch. trying to get parker to look and smile at the camera while we were there was a joke. there was way too much to see and do a picture was the last thing he was concerned about. but i still got some cute ones. here's a photo dump of our day.











there was this big box of corn for kids to play in. parker had a great time in it.



the petting zoo was a HUGE hit. especially when he found this black baby chicken thing. he wouldnt put it down. 








this tractor was a also a huge hit.... with BOTH boys.

jared was just as anxious as parker was for his turn to drive it.



and parker was not amused when he had to share and let daddy have a turn.


and finally we made our way through the hay maze


we had a really fun afternoon at the pumpkin patch.

its crazy that we only have three more saturdays to do things with just the three of us.
baby sis is coming soon!

You've inspired me to go to a pumpkin patch this year. I never have. Here's hoping to a new tradition.
