Green Acres

One thing I look forward to every year is a trip to the pumpkin patch.  I enjoy the smell of the hay, the corn maze, the open fields, the horses, cowboy hats and boots, and the general "farm" feel it brings.  This year was extra special since it was Jet's first trip.  I'm well aware that he won't remember it, but that's what the pictures are for :)  Not to mention I think he really did enjoy all the different experiences he had.  My parents came along and we had a wonderful time.  Thanks for coming Grandma and Grandpa!  And thanks for making it happen hubs!

Experiencing hay for the first time.  He kept trying to eat it.

Jet liked being a goat

Mom and Dad appeasing me and my desire to take hundreds of photos

They had large tractors for kids to climb through and enjoy.  Jet was being scooped up by one :)

Jet actually really enjoyed sitting in the tractor.  He grabbed onto the wheel with 2 hands and was just smiling and giggling the whole time.  Was quite fun to watch.

Getting a hold of the throttle. 

Last but not least was a hay ride.  It had a shelter which kept the sun from beating on us and the wind coming off the lake was perfect. It was quite peaceful and if we had time I think I would have gone again :)

The corn fields.  We did go through the massive corn maze (found 5 out of 10 check points) but I didn't get any pictures.  Oh well, next year!

Good 'ole country hay stacks

As we were leaving there were horses nearby to pet.  JT took Jet to pet them for the first time.

He liked them!  He was smiling and laughing when he was watching then.  Jet seems to like any animals right now (he goes crazy for my mom's dogs). 

And of course wrapping up the day with wiping the hands with baby wipes.  A Rimbey Family must!
