Today Luke’s school had a field trip to the Tanaka Farms
pumpkin patch. It is a real
working farm and it has a much nicer feel than all of the bounce house, spook
house, mechanical ride stuff that is going on at the Johnson Brother’s patch
that we normally go to. Luke was
most excited about riding on the tractor.
It was actually a wagon being pulled by a tractor but he still loved
it.
First we rode over to the
petting zoo. Luke normally loves
animals but he was not so excited about the sheep and goats that we met today
because he said that they were dirty.
It was certainly smelly in their little pen and the floor was covered
with droppings. Luke did not like
it one bit and kept asking to leave.
He does not like dirty. He
told me repeatedly “Let’s get out of here Mom.”
Next the wagon drove us out to the vegetable fields and we
got to pick carrots, green onions, radishes, and green beans. Luke especially liked picking the
carrots and ate them all up for his snack later that day.
We also got to choose a pumpkin to
bring home. Luke originally told
me that he wanted a really big one, but once he tried picking them up he
changed his mind. He said “I have
little hands. I want a little
pumpkin.” This kid. He kills me with his cuteness. He found the perfect little pumpkin
that he could carry and was so excited to bring it home. He carried it around all day long,
