Pumpkin Patch (#2 & #3)

This last weekend Saturday we headed to Lee Farms for a first birthday party, and then Sunday we headed to Fir Point Farms in Aurora. Lee Farms was fun, lots of people in a small space. Lots of good stuff, but just lots of people too. Sam suddenly decided to become brave and do more than she's ever done. She wanted to do a big slide, so her and Keira headed up after Claire. We were convinced they wouldn't do it by themselves, but once the big girls helped them get their potato sacks placed, down came Sam. She looked terrified, but did it, didn't cry, didn't hold on, that's a WIN. Then she wanted to ride a pony. (This summer, August, she had the chance to ride a pony at the Clackamas Co. Fair with my parents, but she passed) She was so excited to do it this time. She kept petting the pony, rode around in the circle with me walking, and had a blast. She keeps saying it was her favorite part of the weekend. She also then did the a bounce house with Keira. It was hard to pull her away to head to a family dinner. Somehow that girl got some Wayne Berger in her afterall, she has become obsessed with tractors and farm life. Too funny, and does not get that from me.

Sunday we headed to Fir Point Farms since Josh's boss was there. His wife makes wooden lawn decorations for the holidays and had a tent set up. It was nice to meet Ron's wife, and see what she does. Then one of Josh's customers was there too and hooked us up with some popcorn. Sam and Audrey both played with some pedal cars, ran around, and saw the goats (and one large turkey!) at the petting zoo area. Audrey loves the goats, and one of the baby goats really loved her too!

It was such a nice weekend, the weather was great so it was nice we had outside plans. I felt bad coming home by noon on Sunday when it got up to the mid 70's for likely the last time this season. It was nice to come home and relax for a bit however!
