After 2 failed attempts at going to a local pumpkin patch, we finally made it last week – 3rd times the charm!      A friend met us there and it was so much fun! We went to Riverbend Farms, and of course I took my camera along….

Notice Canyon coming down on his belly in the picture above? That is how he typically slides and loves it…  At one point we looked up and saw this:

when it was obvious he couldn’t get on the slide by himself, Kennedy helped him out by picking him up, sitting him on his bottom and sending him down.  That is when Stephanie (his Mom) and I had one of those Mommy moments that you know you need to hold, soothe and comfort, but all we did was laugh. Hysterically. That  is all we could do! The look on his face was priceless. And as he crashed at the bottom (not hurt, just scared) we were both doubled over laughing.

(I hope you are laughing now and not thinking we are horrible parents!)

 A few minutes later a couple came up with a 3 year old, as he climbed up the ramp to the slide, Stephanie warned them that it is fast and asked if he would be okay. The Mom was all “yeah, he loves slides!” well that kid came down at a rate of speed that sent the Mom (and us) into hysterics again! What is wrong with us?! I mean really…. just thinking about it makes me laugh all over again!

Happy Monday, oh, and Happy Halloween! :)
