A Pumpkin Patch Bender




Even though we just went to the pumpkin patch yesterday with Caroline, I just couldn't pass up the chance to hit another one when Kelly called this morning. It was either have a ton of fun on a gorgeous day outside, or go to Safeway and do our chores, and since we all know how we feel about Safeway, it was really an easy decision. Honestly, I think I was doing a service to the shoppers at Safeway by staying away, so it was a no-brainer. Boy did we have a busy morning! We fed goats, jumped in bouncy houses, and rode the train. But the highlight of the morning was the pony ride! I thought Lizzy would probably do it because she seemed excited about it and is usually a pretty good sport about those types of things. But when Peter and Charlie started to chime in, I figured we just had some big talkers on our hands. But much to my surprise, everyone went for a ride (some white knuckling the saddle with tense, but proud, looks on their faces). I guess it's another example of when a trusted friend paves the way, you're ready and eager to take a chance and try something new.
