Pumpkin Patch Day

We went to visit Murray Farms in Bakersfield this weekend--they had a whole fall extravaganza. Rows of pumpkins to run through out front, a hay ride tour of the farm, a pick your own pumpkin patch, a hay maze, an asparagus maze, and a petting zoo. So it was a busy afternoon.

The picture of Trevor sitting in the yellow stuff is like a corn-instead-of-sand box. John was playing 'hide kitty in the corn' and Trevor was getting pretty frantic that his daddy was doing something questionable to beloved kitty.

The hay ride was pretty cool--the actual owner guy was giving the tour. Trev liked the rows of little pumpkins to choose from, but seemed to view them more as funny balls to throw on the ground than somewhat fragile objects to return home with. We'll have to try carving one this week to see what he thinks of the slimy stuff.

Oh, and while we were out and about in Bakersfield John and I would do the holding on to Trevor's hand and swing him in the air thing while walking. Trevor evidently liked this and then went on to expect it in most situations where mommy or daddy require that he hold their hand. So when we were walking in a parking lot yesterday and I grabbed onto his hand, he pretty quickly became limp and swung himself back right into the cement. No injury, so it was pretty funny. My baby is a genius of sorts.
