If your not going to take a nap...

...then you'll do laundry darn it. And in 25 years (plus or minus a few) your wife will love me for how capable you are. (This post is dedicated to Pat - who made Chris very capable. Thank you!!!)

Pumpkin Patch

Saturday it was a beautiful 82 degrees and we decided to check out what an Okie Pumpkin Patch looks like.

This is the one that everyone told me was "the one" to go too. It was about 45 minutes away from the house. Technically the address is still Oklahoma City but its located right outside of Moore, OK. Moore is where Toby Keith is from and I believe he still lives. There was a HUGE water tower that said Home of Toby Keith. This is south of us.

It was 12.50 just to get into the pumpkin patch, per person! So I was hoping it would be worth it. Chris and I agreed though that we got our money's worth. We were able to do a lot with our pass. This price included a train ride, a carousel ride, a hay ride, jumping pillows, a giant sand box, a playground, a little maze, go-karts (the only thing we didn't do) and a little petting zoo. We paid extra for Claire to ride the ponies and Chris to ride the zipline. We had a great day.

Just goes to show how much braver she has gotten. Last year she wouldn't have riden the carousel on the horse by herself and wouldn't have gotten on the pony.

They had these big slides which went a lot faster than I was expecting. Claire kept going down over and over again.
