Jakers Pumpkin Patch

This past week we went with the Barretts to the Jakers Pumpkin Patch and had such a blast.  It was a much needed activity for me on that day in particular.  I was feeling a little cooped up in the house because Todd had the car all day, and when Todd got home from school, I was ready to go!  When we got there, there were these huge slides that were made out of large tubing.  Todd and I each took Reese down them, and she loved them (we think!).  Right after we came out of the slide, her face was turrified (as you'll see in the picture below), but then as soon as we were standing up, she was all smiles.

All of her cousins, Macy, Avery, and Jade were the cutest with Reese.  They like to pat her bald head and stick their faces right up in hers.  Jade says, "Baybee."  Macy says, "Reese, Reese, Reese, Reese, Reese, and so on.  And Avery says, "Reese-a-roni, Reese-a-roni, Reese-a-roni, Reese-a-roni, and so on." (Laughing-so-hard-you're-crying emojicon).  It is so freaking hilarious to me the way they interact with Reese, and it makes me excited for Reese to have siblings some day! 

After the slide, we walked over to the animals, and there was a HUGE pig.  We're talking monstrous people.  And it smelled montrous too.  Jade was all about getting as close as possible to all the animals.  No fear that girl.  She kept wanting to stick her hands through the mesh fence and pet the goats, haha.  Reese on the other hand looked terrified and totally confused when I brought her close to the animals.  She was kind of staring at Jade like, "Girl...you be crazy."  Then we spotted some of those things where you get to stick your head on top of the animals.  Photo op! Duh.  Aren't they the cutest little cousins?

I said it before, but I'll say it again...MUCH needed night out.  The fresh air.  The pumpkins.  The festivities.  Family.  Buns and Roni time.  It was great.  We didn't get to go on the hayride or through the corn maze because Todd had to get back to study for a test the next day, but he promised we could go again before Halloween.  You betta believe I'm holding him to it!
