Pumpkin Patch Bound!!!

Something very important to our boys this time of year is going to a pumpkin patch.  I don't know what it is, but Jake and AJ LOVE pumpkins.  Always have.  They get super excited every time they see them and when they finally have a pumpkin of their own I worry that they are going to want to sleep with them.  :)  So needless to say one of the first things we had to do this month in our new hometown was find a pumpkin patch to bring them to.  This place was recommended to us and they have animals, pony rides and other fun there.  The boys needless to say had a great time and have loved their pumpkins every day since (even though AJs is already quite squishy  hehe)

We had just gotten out of the car and the boys got super excited and ran up to the fence.  Had to check out the big animal with the massive horns.  :)

AJ was very excited to go and check it out!

I think the boys picked up every pumpkin they had there

They thought these white ones were strange but cute.

So much fun to watch them explore

....and they did a lot of it :)

But before they picked out their pumpkins to take home we wanted to do some other things...like a Pony ride.  This was AJ's first.

However for Jake it was his second...so he was a pro :) (He had ridden one last year and the NC State Fair)

And yes AJ was not very sure about it...this was right before he jumped off the horse mid ride and into Ryan's arms and then sat out the rest of the ride.  Although when they all came out of the corral he was smiling and saying how much fun it was.  Silly goof.

 

"Wwwhhhooooooooo"

Checking out the Llama

...and the ducks

I think he is picking out his favorite one :)

Something about horns...the boys are really curious about them.  Although Jake keeps saying "Hook-em Horns" every time he sees them, which he learned when we were in Texas in May.  Poor kid could get in trouble with that now living in Oklahoma as there is a bit of a rivalry with our college football team and theirs.  :)

Jake really liked seeing the ponies

The boys had the most fun with this simple skeeball game...they could have stayed there for hours.

Then came the serious business of picking out a pumpkin

I think they found them

Chester's Party Barn was enjoyed by these two.  :)

This was just a day where Jake was being super cute and so I had to get a picture...

...and then the cutest picture in the world happened.  :)  I love my boys and they sure love each other!!!!
