the kinders: Pumpkin Patch

This past Saturday our Sunday School class had a trip to the pumpkin patch in Marble Falls. The weather was great and Jack had fun having a picnic, riding on the hayride and feeding the goats. Oh, and eating pumpkin ice cream! During the hayride he was completely mesmerized by the giant wheels of the tractor and sat looking very serious the entire ride. He LOVED feeding the goats and didn't mind them licking his hands or his face (this just happened once and I flipped out and was ready with a wipe IMMEDIATELY!). We have recently taken to calling Jack "Dr. Doolittle" because he has started collecting up the various stuffed animals around his room and holding as many as possible in his arms. Also, one surefire way to get him to walk is to hold up a stuffed animal and make the animal noise and he walk to you every time. Back to the pumpkin patch, Jack did not, however, love the pumpkins and started hollering when we handed him or sat him down in a patch of them. Maybe he thought we were going to leave him there... He does love playing with our pumpkins at home though. All in all it was a great family day and we will definitely be going back for their strawberry picking in May! Here are some of the highlights! Next post: Halloween and a birthday party!

The cutest pumpkin!
