Jackson's visit to Tate's Farms

This afternoon we took a few hours to head over to Tate's Farm for a visit to their pumpkin patch. To say we only went to a pumpkin patch is the understatement of the year. This place has everything.... First Jackson started off by running as fast as his legs allow. So of course we headed to catch him. Jackson has found that he wants to go into whatever direction that we are not planning to go. So we spent lots of time redirecting him. He spend quite a while in the swings and loved them.

Then he went to play in the cotton bin. He was not able to walk really good in the cotton but he did a great flip right after I took this picture.

They had these two tractors there that kids could get into, which was really neat except my child just wanted to drive for about 2 seconds and then run and try to jump out of the side. Keep in mind it was about a 3 foot drop, which he did not understand was a danger.

Also they had this giant pile of tire. Another no fear zone for Jackson. He loved being in the sand but really wanted to jump off the tire.

This would not have ended good except Chad was right there to catch him.

He enjoyed the walk though tires too.
Just a little too tall

Yep that will be a grass stain.... Your welcome Mommy

Jackson also had a good time playing peek a boo around the decorations.

He is hiding BOO

They also had a petting zoo with bunny's, goat's, and a lama. The llama liked my shirt!

Then we took a hayride over to the actual pumpkin patch. Jackson loved the pumpkin patch. He loved all the free space he loved to run from pumpkin to pumpkin. But most of all he wanted to pick up a pumpkin. However, he was not successful.

Here is Jackson and Chad on the hayrideMommy and Jackson on the hayride So many pumpkins and so little time

I love this place......Maybe I can pick this one up.

Oh now maybe I can pick this one up.
Hummmmmm......... I am not even going to try.

We all had a wonderful time and we will definitely be going back next year. I am sure we will be there even longer next year. In addition to all of the things I posted about there were also hay mazes, lots of slides, a concession stand with funnel cakes and lots more.
