Next, we met my family at a pumpkin patch. It was so great!
Josh got to "ride" a tractor. The pedals were too stiff to use so he just walked himself along.
He actually sat still to get his face painted. He wanted something blue so I just had her do a blue pumpkin. It was cute and Josh was happy with it!
He didn't make it very far in the climb, but this was good for the older kids.
This was awesome! No other adults were getting in, but Renda, Brandi and I jumped in the with kids. They had a huge trailer filled with fresh-picked cotton. (Yes, we itched like crazy later. Especially after Renda hit me with a big handful that went down my shirt!)
They somewhat posed for a group pic. This is my niece Hayleigh, nephew Noah, Josh and nephew Jordan.
They had a corn maze at the entrance of the festival. The kids had a blast hiding in the corn since they were small enough to run down the rows. This was another great idea to make this the best patch to go to!
When we FINALLY found the exit to the maze, we saw a few people headed this way. So the kids really got to run free. (We didn't find out until later that we went the wrong way since we walked all the way to the patch instead of taking the hay ride but at least we didn't have to stand in line twice!)
I was so proud of Josh. As soon as we walked into the pumpkin patch his found a cute little pumpkin. It weighed practically nothing so after two seconds when he was done carrying it, I didn't mind. He looked a lots of pumpkins but he never changed his mind!
I'm just not as good as Josh. I found a cool one that matched his but weighed a ton!!!! I had found a neat green one that I was going to get but saw this one and just had to get it. My brother had to take it from me b/c my arms gave out and I couldn't even carry back to the line to get on the hayride.
We had to wait in line for quite a while so Josh found a way to entertain himself. He thought it was just like being at the beach! He was dirty, but content and didn't run away!
Thanks to Aunt Renda for such a great time! We can't wait until next year!
And to conclude this long day, Josh had an accident. Thank goodness he already had a bath after such a dirty day b/c he fell in the living room and hit his eyebrow on the corner of the coffee table. The SAME corner he hit just months ago with the back of his head. Well of course I freaked b/c his head was spewing blood. We probably should have gotten stitches, but Greg's mom just used strips to close it up and padded it well so he wouldn't hurt it any worse. Poor guy :( I'm just thankful it wasn't his eye, but I hope he doesn't have a bad scar.
