Way Fruit Farm Pumpkin Patch

Today we went to Way Fruit Farm for their Fall Festival. They were giving tractor rides out to the pumpkin patch where you could go pick your pumpkin! I had been planning on going to this for a few weeks, and was really excited. Yesterday James started show signs of getting sick, so we were going to see how he felt the next day (today). Well this morning he was bringing me a book to read when he stopped just shy of the couch and upchucked all the milk he drank this morning. While he missed the couch, he did not miss my foot. It was pretty gross. Ben went to our community center and borrowed a carpet cleaner to clean it all up. Good thing he worked at the MTC cleaning carpets all through college. So anyways after that we decided we should probably stay home. After a nap and some lunch, we decided he was seeming well enough to venture out. I checked the weather and it said there was 30% chance of rain starting at 4pm (it was currently 2pm). Perfect! So off we went. And then it started raining when we were 2 miles away from the farm. Awesome. Luckily we actually had our umbrella in the trunk! We were able to ride a tractor out to the patch and Ben and James went and hunted for a pumpkin while Theo and I stayed under the umbrella. We also bought a peck of apples (yum!), some apple cider, squash and gourds, and a few other things. If was a quickish fun trip, and hopefully it didn't make James worse!

There was a traffic jam on James's crib before bed.

 Despite James being sick, it was a pretty fun day!!
