Big Day!

We had such a big day on Saturday. We started out at Jonathan's work where Jack got to "drive" the backhoe with dad. He loved it and climbed up on that huge thing all by himself. It took a minute, but he managed. He always loves to go to the golf course and climb up on the carts and mowers.

After that, we went to the Pumpkin Patch. Jack enjoyed it last year but had only been walking for a few months. This year.....he loved it. He was all over the place. He of course liked all of the playground equipment, but he loved the rabbits. It was difficult to get him to move on to something else. We had to stop and pet all of the animals and hold about 5 different rabbits. Then we waited in the long line to ride the corn ride. Jack wasn't so impressed. I honestly think he thought that it was kind of boring. The first time around he was sleeping and the second time around he was working on the seat belt which he promptly unhooked. About the time we saw a leg over and about 3 inches from the concrete, our hearts skipped a beat and we knew he was not entertained by being pulled around by a tractor in a corn bucket. He must have heard the panic in mine and Jonathan's voice when we told him to "sit down!", because he did. Jack was even sweet enough to pick me a sunflower while out in the pumpkin patch and bring it to me. That is a great habit that he has learned from his dad, they always bring me flowers. So sweet.

After a nap at home, we got ready for our dinner and show. Grandma and Grandpa came over and we went to Disney On Ice. I kind of thought that Jack would like it for a minute, but he loved the whole two hours. He sat right on the edge of his seat and danced and talked and laughed. He also enjoyed his Mickey Mouse ears and his smores-on-a-stick during intermission. Jack's favorite part was Peter Pan. He would point and say "where's Pete?". Grandma and Grandpa had to swing him the whole way back to the car so that he could fly like "Pete". As soon as they would stop he would say, "Pete, Pete". Of course we had to watch the movie at bedtime.
