Visit to the pumpkin patch

On Saturday Jeremy, Clara, Diana, Tom, and I went to a pumpkin patch in Eglin, Texas at the Eglin Christmas tree farm. After paying a small fee we were granted access to the farm and everything on it was free (besides the pumpkins), we stopped at the animals to pet them. There was a baby goat (what are baby goats called?), a calf, a donkey, and various other animals.


 After petting some animals we rode on the hay ride around the little farm. Part of the hay ride included a little haunted like area that had some ghosts acting out various different scenes.



 We then took Clara to a height chart that the farm had, hopefully we see more of these and track her height over time.


 The  farm also had little plastic duck races that worked with hand pumps, Jeremy beat me both times but Diana beat Tom once.



 The last thing that we did was pick our pumpkins as you can see I tried to get a picture of Clara among the pumpkins but as you can see to do with it. Though I love the picture anyway because it is her personality at the time.
