To the Pumpkin Patch!

This past weekend, James and AJ went to the Waimanalo Country Farms Pumpkin Patch for an afternoon of fun. Apparently pumpkin patches aren't compatible with the rules of bed rest, so Mama had to sit this adventure out. (Now I'm already excited about next year!)

It was about 35 minutes to the pumpkin patch from our house, but they said the drive was well worth it. AJ enjoyed every minute of it, and he was so excited to point out each person carrying a pumpkin - especially the guy carrying one on his head!

Ready to get some pumpkins!

Touching a Jackson chameleon; he loved it, but not enough to hold it.

After the stampede for food was over and things calmed down, AJ went over for a quick pet on his way out of the pen.

Watching the pig eat some watermelon. (Who knew they liked watermelon?)

This was the animal he was most excited about. Can you tell by the grin?

Finally, off to pick out some pumpkins!

After lunch, AJ got to check out the little play houses before they left. He was so excited that he was allowed to go in!

They came home with five pumpkins: one for Daddy, one for Mama, one for AJ, one for brother, and one for baby. It's a safe bet that bringing home something for the members of our family that aren't even here yet made this mama tear up! Sweet guys, those two!
