The Pumpkin Patch

This past weekend we went to Post Family Farm.  When we woke up in the morning it was sunny, so we thought it would be a perfect day to go.  By the time we arrived, it was raining, but we still managed to have a lot of fun.  The activities were right up the boys' alley as they both love tractors, wagons, big bumpy tires, mud, and everything else that comes with being on a farm.

The first thing the boys did was to paint these little pumpkins.  It really started to rain while they were doing this, so it didn't turn out too well.  Aiden used a couple colors and then he was, "ah done!"  Jordan only wanted to use black on his pumpkin.  Black is his favorite color because it's the color of wheels.

Aiden wanted to ride the little pumpkin train.  For some reason, Jordan had no interest in riding, but just wanted to watch Aiden.  I didn't know how that would go as Aiden gets quite upset when he is separated from us at all.  But he actually did very well and seemed to have a lot of fun.  It helped that the tractor just pulled the kids in a small little path, so we were never out of Aiden's eyesight.

It's so hard to get a good picture of Aiden!  At least one of the boys is looking at the camera.  The boys had a lot of fun searching for pumpkins despite the muddy fields. 

Jordan was pretty pleased with the pumpkin he picked out and couldn't wait to turn it into a jack-o-lantern!  Both boys loved the hayride because they are both obssessed with anything that has wheels!

There was a small little zipline there for young kids to ride.  Jordan was definitely on the younger end of the kids who were riding it, but he had no fear.  Here he is waiting for his turn.

Getting ready to grab on to the bar

Whee!!  Jordan loved the zipline and rode it a few times in a row.  He probably would have kept going except there was a long line and I think he was a little impatient with the wait.

Jordan and Aiden had a lot of fun feeding the goats.

Although Halloween is still several days away, both boys have been eager to try on their costumes.  I have it easy this year as Aiden is going to wear Jordan's old costume, and Jordan wants to wear the same thing he wore last year.

Both boys love to cuddle with Daddy.
