Pumpkin Picking

Jeff's mom came up to visit us the weekend of the 15th of Oct. We had a great time. We picked her up from the airport on Friday. Ryan was excited about the airport and picking up Grams. On Saturday we went pumpkin picking. We went to the same place we had been to last year. Ryan enjoys it there and they have a lot to see and do. Ryan was in charge, he said we would get smoothies first (even though it was chilly outside, he still wanted a smoothie). Mom and I got hot apple cider instead of a smoothie. Then we had to go to the playground before we could go on the hay ride to pumpkin picking. Ryan got cold drinking the smoothie on the hayride and wore his Dad's hat.
When we got to the pumpkin patch, Ryan wanted a green pumpkin like he chose last year. Then he changed his mind and decided on a small orange one.
After the pumpkin patch we went to visit the 4-H animals. They have goats, sheep, chickens, ducks and rabbits. We had to feed them. We played in the giant sandbox after that then went home. Later, Ryan colored his small pumpkin with marker. We did get a big pumpkin to carve and Mom got a gourd.

Hooray for Ward's! I feel badly we didn't get there more often this season. Looks like you all had a good time!
