the Pumpkin Patch!



The Alabama National Fair came to town, so we took Henry. Most rides were too big for him, but they did let me ride a kiddie train ride with him. He was amused by all the lights and noise. Next year he'll get more out of it.
Then last weekend we took Henry to Dreamfield Farms in Union Springs (well, actually Shopton, but no one really knows where that is unless you are from the area). They have lots of things for children to do. We started with a bouncy blow-up gym and maze. Henry is a little young for that because he can't say "I'm lost, help!" So, we didn't let him go too far into the maze. Then we ventured inside for hot chocolate (it was 46 degrees there on Saturday morning!). After warming up inside, we visited the farm animals where Henry tried to give the donkey his green sucker. The donkey didn't want it. So we watched the goats and cow eat and joined the crowd for the pig race. Later, we check out "Cornfusion" the corn maze. Well, someone put up the "clue" signs in the wrong places, so we REALLY got corn-fused!! It was funny, but since the weather was cold and the ground was wet, we were ready to get out of there.

We headed to Auburn to visit with the all the tailgaters (mom, dad, and will included), then home to our cozy, warm house to see Auburn lose, once again! Ugh! Such a frustrating season!!! Oh well, Bill's happy that Alabama is doing good.... at least one of us is happy!
