This week we went down to Atlanta because daddy had a short business trip there. On Tuesday we had some time to kill so we looked up going to an aquarium near by. It was going to cost $30 per adult and $25 per child!! Ack!! So I suggested a pumpkin patch. We found one that would cost $16 each...better...but still a lot when you add up mommy, kiki, and four boys! Finally we found one that was free to walk around and had a hayride that cost $2 for people 3 and older - so $6 total for all of us - muuuch better!! It turned out to be the perfect little farm with just the right amount of simple activities for four little boys.
Little Monkey was terrified...as usual...of this new situation and gave his best sad crying face until he realized everything was ok. Little Lion here was all excited and climbed up into the wagon for the hayride mostly by himself...then realized his brother was crying and that maybe there was something not so good about to happen - but I say he has the courage of a lion :) and just looked minorly nervous and was asking "yap? yap?" in this picture (meaning "lap?") so I plopped him on my lap for a minute until we started to move and then he was good to go!
Not so bad! And Big Brother loved every second of it! :)
We got to stop and walk out on that dock and feed the fish - another highlight of the day! I mentioned that the fish had to be pretty big after being fed multiple times a day and sure enough! they were pretty good sized!
blowing hay at kiki was funny. :)
Here is an example of Little Monkey's sad crying face. Lol Precious silly boy!
The tractor that pulled us had BIG wheels!!
Lunch time!
Both Little Lion and Big Brother touched the goats.
and apparently petting them was hilarious. :)
The cows were a big hit too. So was their dirty water.... boys... :}
I love the way Little Lion's hands are clasped behind his back. :)
Next the boys got to pull and wagon and pick out their very own tiny pumpkin gourd!
Little Lion couldn't decide if he would rather ride or pull...
Hmm...strangest granny smith apple I've ever seen!
We all had so much fun on the farm! Next time we'll have one more!
