Grandma Veater's Visit

This past weekend my mom flew in to spend time with us, but lets be honest, it was really to spend time with Jacob. We enjoyed eating out at some our favorites eats, Maggiano's and El Fenix. Dan and I had a much needed evening out on the town sans Jacob. Grandma Veater came bearing gifts for Jacob's birthday. He was given a Tickle Monster Kit. Jacob loves books and he loves to tickle so it was a great combo for him. (thanks mom and dad). Also during her visit we had free tickets to putt putt golf. We did maybe three or four holes and then Jacob was more interested in exploring than golfing. Come again soon mom.

Pumpkin Picking

We didn't find a great pumpkin patch to pick our pumpkins this year so we hit the local Whole Foods store to find some.

Big Orange Pumpkin Patch

During Dan's parents visit, we drove to a pumpkin patch. It wasn't the biggest or best patch we've ever seen. It did have a hayride, animals to feed and blow up slide. The patch itself was very small and I think the pumpkins were brought in and set next to the pumpkin plants. It was super muddy and Jake loved rolling the pumpkins. He also loved feeding the animals.
