Pumpkin Patch

Last Friday we went with our MACARONI (who knows what that stands for?) group from church to the Boone Hall Pumpkin Patch in Mt. Pleasant. It was overall fun but sooo tiring for Mom and KJ! First, we walked around in the pumpkins and then went over to the jump castles. KJ is a little too young for that yet but thankfully they had a small one for toddlers. Toddlers? Can you believe we're already using that word? Anyhoo, we had fun jumping around and crawling thru the tunnels. Next we went over to see the animals and KJ especially enjoyed the bunnies. She wanted to take one home but we had to leave them for the other children to enjoy. Lastly, we rode the truck aka "hayride" and as you'll see from the last photo we were pooped by then. When we left we hadn't eaten lunch and had packed one so Mom did some quick brainstorming and decided against sitting at a picnic table with bugs flying around. So we hoofed it to the van and had a picnic on the floor. Thank Goodness for sto and go seats! We flipped the screen down, popped in a Einstein DVD, and had a nice relaxing lunch in the air conditioning!
