Pumpkin Patch Day!!

Grrr! This post did not do what I wanted it to! I downloaded a lot of pictures and then in my moving them around, many of them were somehow deleted. Once I realized it I downloaded the lost ones again, but because of the way I arranged the pictures to start with, I am not able to move the newly added ones back in, in order. So . . . . here are a bunch of disorganized pictures from the pumpkin patch. Scroll all the way down to the end of the post and these pictures at the top will make sense. :)

I always joke about how all of my friends have girls and poor Ryan has no little boys to play with. This is SOOOO true--right down to his cousins . . . he has male step cousins, but biological cousins are all girls. Come on friends . . . lets have some boys :)

On Saturday, my friend Kara and her girls Lynnea and Olivia went with us to the Hess Pumpkin Patch. Soooo fun! It cost a little more to get into than I had really wanted to pay, but there was a lot of stuff for the kids to do! Soccar ball bowling

How cute are these guys? They always have so much fun together! I promise, Kara and I did not coordinate our girls clothes! :) Again, Ryan and the estrogen :)Rubber Duckie Races while pumping water. The water would run out from time to time and the ducks would not slide. The child this would happen to would not be happy.They had a cow train. This was too funny! Kara and I rode too!! Very bumpy ride. They all loved it, but towards the end of the ride Lydia wanted to get off. She is like me and does not like it when she does not feel in control of something. The last half of the ride she was yelling "stop!" and Ryan, Emily and Lynnea were yelling "faster!" :)Musical pots and pansMilking cowsThe bunny house. Olivia fell in love with the bunnies! All the kids were trying to pet them through the chicken wire and then would pull away when the bunnies would try to nibble their fingers--laughing the entire time!! One more at the bottom of the pictures. Olivia and Lynnea "Back home on the Farm"The Corn Deer tractorThey had a slide that went underground. The kids would ride down on their burlap sacks and then walk back up the hill and go again--over and over! In the corn maze at the end of the day. LtoR-Lydia, Emily, Lynnea, Ryan--Olivia in front. We decided not to go through the corn maze because we had already been there 3 1/2 hours and they told us the maze would take at least 45 minutes to get through and that is just with adults. No thanks! Maybe next time :)

Finally, they had pig racing. They had pigs race to the finish line to eat Oreos. It was too funny! Absolutely the greatest day! Awesome weather! Awesome company!
