Jumbo's Pumpkin Patch & Petting Zoo

On Saturday it was so gloomy and poor Wyatt had to get a flu shot so we had to stay in instead of getting to play with Pop pop and Nonna at Butler;s Orchard. We decided it would be better to postpone our visit to next week.

Today Momma decided to take Wyatt to see Pappy and Grandma and to visit her friend Amy's family farm Jumbos (in Middletown). It was the perfect place to take kids of any age and there was so much for Wyatt to see and explore. He had such a great time and got to spend a lot of quality time with Grandma and Pappy Freeze. Jumbos was such a beautiful farm and it had these amazing views of the Middletown skyline. It reminded me of what I really loved about growing up there and seeing all those beautiful colors in the fall and those tall mountains. Here is a little photo journey for everyone about our special day.
First things first let get you all sized up little man!!! Also at Jumbo's was a petting zoo where Wyatt really had some fun. I knew Wyatt loved Sugar but I never knew what an animal lover he was. He had no fear either he would just stand there trying to touch each of the animals with a huge smile on his face.

This little calf and Wyatt had a real bond. She just loved him so much and gave him all sorts of kisses on his hands...and face. He was so brave and laughed while she did it. He would just keep petting her and smiling at her. Afterward his hands were all wet and as we left he kept looking back at her like "bye friend."

Wyatt sitting in the grass letting the chicken come to him. The chicken kept getting chased by all the children I would feel bad but I hate chickens so I just thought it was funny.

Wyatt reaching out for the horsey next. He kept desperately trying to get the horses attention. Wyatt and Grandma play in line while waiting for the face painting. Wyatt also made a friend in the line as well and she had a hat too so they both twirled their hats around and giggled at each other. Who could resist my little cowboy!

Wyatt admiring his new tatoo. He did such a great job and was the best little boy sitting really still while the lady put it on. He loved the result and didn't want to give the mirror back.

Wyatt got to ride his very first pony. He loved riding on the horse and mommy was so proud that he instinctivly knew to hold onto the horn on the saddle. He sure did his cowboy name (Wyatt) right. Meanwhile Grandma learned how to use Mommy's camera, in her defense the horse was moving a little fast and my camera is not so good with the action.

Wyatt was so proud of his neat cowboy hat. Here the bronco poses with his Pappy.

The cowboys, Wyatt and Pappy looking for a Pumpkin in the corn field. There's that skyline I was talking about. I think I am developing a little photo project for a room in my house.
