Is there a better place to spend your 2nd birthday than on a farm, riding a hayride and picking a pumpkin on a beautiful east TN fall day? I think not! So, after church on Sunday we took our birthday boy to the pumpkin patch! We had his birthday party on Saturday (the day before his actual birthday) and I'll post pictures of that celebration soon. But I thought I'd post the pictures of our pumpkin patch adventure first. I can't believe he is 2!
Farmer Will at Maple Lane Farms....ready to get on the hayride.
We got to see lots of tractors....which is HUGE for our two year old! He loves them!
Then we rode on a hayride behind one of those wonderful tractors down a path like this to the pumpkin patch.
Saw lots of cows.....another huge hit with Will. He is all about cows!
Enjoyed beautiful East TN scenery!
Then we hit the ground running. Time to find the perfect pumpkin!
Can you tell that he is running? He had a ball in the pumpkin patch! Tripping over vines and everything!
I really LOVE this picture!
Loaded back on the hayride for the return trip!
Tried to get a picture of me with the kids. That doesn't happen very often and Sean isn't patient enough to keep taking pics until everyone is looking or at least has their eyes opened! Oh well!
Small, medium and large pumpkins!
The pumpkin patch is just the best place to take pictures! I was driving them crazy asking them to pose for so many pics! Loved this one on the steps of the hayride trailer.
This year, the farm has teamed up with a local restaurant, has a corn maze, a haunted house, live music and a couple of rides for kids. As if cows, tractors and pumpkins wasn't enough, there was a TRAIN! Another one of Will's faves!
I imagine that Helen was asking Will if he wanted to ride.......
And, since it was his birthday, he got to be the train engineer!
Loved it!
After we left the pumpkin patch, we went to the park with our growth group friends from church. It was a beautiful evening and a great way for Will to finish out his birthday; playing with all of his buddies! Love these kids! What a great group!
Happy Birthday Will! We love you!The Lord your God is with you,
He is mighty to save.
He will take great delight in you,
He will quiet you with his love,
He will rejoice over you with singing.
