Pumpkin Patch (Hayden, AL) - 2010





















Playing in the hay, seeing farm animals, riding on a hay ride, picking out a pumpkin, & wearing my overalls is what this Saturday entailed! We enjoyed a day at Hayden's Pumpkin Patch. Stryker's eyes remained wide open experiencing all the new things. On the hay ride, he immediately reached for daddy as soon as he was sat on the hay. It may have been due to all the other people on the hay ride. A big smile emerged as the tractor started up & drove us to the field of pumpkins. Logan held Stryker as we walked across the vastness looking for the perfect pumpkin. Stryker picked out one that he could sit on! Logan joked that Stryker would pick out the furthest one away making daddy carry it all the way back. Stryker loved the farm animals which included a donkey, llama, piglets, calf, turkey, geese, & pony. Jack, the donkey, was his favorite. Before leaving, we thought Stryker might enjoy playing in the hay bails. He didn't mind it when sitting but would pick his hand up to look at the hay when on his tummy. Something new always inspires Stryker's curiosity. After the pumpkin patch, we stopped by for a visit at Vestavia Country Club. Stryker got to see Coco in the pro shop & meet lots of new people. He craves attention! Fletch, Coco, Logan, Stryker, & I ate supper together at Chuy's mexican restaurant located at the Summit. Next time, we would like to sit outside to eat. Stryker was exhausted & fell asleep quickly in the car.
