Pumpkin Patch


We had such a good time today. Started by picking up Andy, Nikki and Riley and headed to the pumpkin patch. We weren't sure what the weather was going to do, I was just hoping for no torrential downpours. The clouds didn't bother me because the colors would be better in the pictures.

The pumpkin patch was on Curry Ford at Primrose. Not a huge place but a nice little area set up with a wagon, hay bales and scarecrows. Riley had a problem getting his footing to begin with because the ground was kind of uneven but he got it under control soon enough.

Started on the wagon for pictures and Riley found some pumpkins that were just his size that he played with. Then we spent some time just following him around. He tried to pick up a couple of the bigger pumpkins but that was a no go. Then the leaves that were all over caught his eye and he had quite a collection by the time we were ready to leave.

Looked around for a pumpkin for Nikki so she can make a pumpkin pie and we found a small one for Riley so he can carry it around the house.

Decided it was time for lunch and headed over to Waterford Lakes to the Macaroni Grill. We all enjoyed our meals and Riley really liked it because he got a little bit of everything. There was anything that he didn't like. He tried the chicken, broccoli, asparagus, lasagna, penne, and of course the bread. The best part was the lemon slice we gave him. He really didn't like it but because we would laugh at the face he was making he would keep putting it in his mouth, causing the face, making us laugh, and he would put it in his mouth again. He also had the waitress wrapped around his little finger.

After lunch, went to Party City to look for a costume for Riley. What a mad house, everyone had the same idea. We found his a really cute one but you will have to wait until Halloween to see him in it.

Then it across the street to the scrapbook store, another hopping place. Now I know why I shop during the week.

Time to head home and everyone in the back seat took a nap for most of the ride home. It was a very busy and fun day.

This time blogger put in the extra spaces for me.
