The Pumpkin Patch 2008

THE Pumpkin Patch is the one near Rockford that Chad always used to go to as a kid.  We stopped there on the way back from our NIU/Rockford trip with Chad's parents.  Jordan had fun running around and looking at everything.  Last year he basically couldn't do anything but this year he had a blast!

Chad and Jordan entering the Pumpkin Patch!

Me and Jordan with some fun pumpkins and gourds!

Jordan loved trying to pick up all the pumpkins!

Jordan thought riding this tractor all by himself was pretty cool! 

This is their 12 foot pumpkin!  We take this picture every time we go!

Bubba, Grandma, Chad, and Jordan posing with one of the many fun cutouts!


Jordan liked to see the animals.  I was brave enough to feed a llama.  Here are Jordan, Chad, and Bubba looking at some pigs!

We, of course, had to sit and have an apple donut.  I also tried a pumpkin donut this time.  Jordan loved eating grilled corn on the cob.  It was a great visit to the pumpkin patch!
