Pumpkin Patch







































We were so excited to go to the Pumpkin Patch this year! We went to Old Baker Farm in Harpersville, Al. With Claire being brand new to the world last October, it just didn't happen, so we couldn't wait to go this year. We went with the Barrows and had tons of fun! Wells and Emily Kathryn love each other and play well. Wells LOVED the petting zoo part. I am almost convinced that he is Dr. Doolittle himself. All the animals came right up to him wherever he would walk! It was hilarious! The goat even licked his lips...disgusting I know. He is just obsessed with all animals and obviously they can tell! His favorite part of the place was the part where you washed your hands. He could have stayed there forever and yes, he was soaked when we left. We also ran into other close friends from church while there! Very fun! Nathan is in the washing hands picture with Ek and Wells. Claire just loved observing it all! We can tell that she really wants to walk like her brother though. She is ready to move! It was a gorgeous, but hot morning so we only lasted about 2 hours. But that was plenty of time for a 2 year old, a one year old, and two parents holding them or chasing them. And Wells got the perfect baseball sized white pumpkin (that was totally soft). He threw it about 4 times when he got home and it was history. But hey, he picked it out! Claire just got what we thought was cute. We look forward to going to different ones every year and it is definitely going to be an October tradition! So fun!
