In October we enjoyed the beautiful weather by spending the day at Vala's Pumpkin Patch. It was a first time for both me and Tommy. We started off our day by going on a hay-rack ride to the pumpkin patch so Tommy could pick out his pumpkin. There were so many pumpkins that were the perfect size for Tommy. It was so much fun watching him navigate through the pumpkin and attempt to pick up various pumpkins. When we finally found the perfect pumpkin, Tommy insisted on holding it the entire way back. He was very proud of his pumpkin.
After Tommy picked out his pumpkin, we explored the petting zoo. We fed some very hungry goats, llamas, and a camel. Tommy thought is was so funny watching the goats eat out of our hands. He even wanted to give it a try.
A perfect end to a perfect day. Yep you guessed it. Pig races and dessert. We couldn't leave the pumpkin patch without dad's favorite treat, a caramel apple rolled in M&M's. So mom and dad shared a delicious caramel apple while Tommy enjoyed a dish of chocolate ice cream as we cheered on our favorite pigs as they raced around the track!
