Pumpkin Patch


















The first weekend in October we drove out west to Crest Hill, IL to hit up the pumpkin patch. We had a great time looking at the animals and exploring the pumpkin patch. Not to mention the choo-choo train. He was so excited to ride on the train and I love the picture of him with his big smile. He was in heaven that day because we also got to ride on a tractor out to the pumpkins.
Jarod told Jacoby that we had to knock on the pumpkins to see if they were ripe- I don't even think that is true but it was hysterical to watch Jacoby go around and say "knock, knock" as he knocked on the pumpkins and then put his ear up to them to listen. Jacoby picked up this green starting to rot baby pumpkin and that was the one that he really wanted. He packed that thing around all day until finally he put it down to wash his hands and the guy that worked there picked it up and threw it away. Good thing Jacobes didn't see that.
On the way home we saw this little Mexican food restaurant in a strip mall and stopped. The food was amazing! It was so authentic you had to order off a numbered menu because they did not speak any English but man it was worth the drive just for the food. It was so good and writing this makes me want to drive out there right now.
