Beautiful Fall Weekend

Fun on the slide...

The weather was amazing this weekend! I don't think that we have ever worn shorts and sandals in October, especially to the pumpkin patch!

We ran some errands on Friday and were thinking of going to the Coon Rapids homecoming game, but Evan was cranky by 5:30pm. Oh well, maybe next year!

On Saturday morning, Evan and daddy had fun at home while I went to a get together at my co-worker's house. After Evan's nap we headed to Apple Jack Orchards in Delano, MN. We had heard that it was a neat place, so we decided to check it out. It was a beautiful drive and we enjoyed looking at the fall colors. We saw a couple of trains, which Evan was VERY excited about! There were a lot of people there, but we had a great time. We picked our own pumpkins, and Evan insisted on picking the green one. He didn't want any of the pretty orange ones...I guess it's kind of like "Charlie Brown's Christmas" when he picks the little tree that no one else wants! We also went on a wagon ride through the apple trees and Evan had fun at the "kiddie" area. They had goats, chickens, and ponies. They also had a mini corn maze and a pile of hay bales with slides. Evan ran around like crazy and was exhausted on the way home. He slept good last night and slept in this morning!

Today we played outside in the backyard and went to the park. Evan is very into playing in the sand and dirt...he is all boy! He was picking up rocks and wanted to put them in his pocket. When he realized that he didn't have pockets, he start putting them in mommy's pocket!

He is definitely having more "terrible two" moments and is testing us. Good thing he is so dang cute!
