Our families have heard us brag about some of the cool stuff Omaha has to offer that Idaho doesn't. One of those is Vala's Pumpkin Patch. It is sort of the Disneyland of pumpkin patches. I had never been to one until we moved here, but have since learned just how awesome they are. the best part is that every year gets more and more fun since Aimee and Porter enjoy it better as they get older. Here are just a few pictures of some of the fun things we do there. Aimee rode the pony's all by herself! We still hear about that regularly. We rode on the family pedal carts, and tried to bury Chad in the corn pit. We played on the jumping pillows this year for quite a while. Luckily there are three that are for different age groups. Porter got a little frustrated that he kept loosing his balance when other kids jumped too close to him. He had fun running from one end to the other and then sliding down the sides. We also had some pretty great games of ring-around-the-rosy! We rode the Vala's express train, had duck races, watched the pigtucky derby races, saw a dragon that ate pumpkins (and brushed it's teeth after) and watched the pumpkin cannons. Last, but not least, we went on a hay rack ride to pick out pumpkins. This year our medical club didn't pay for it so we decided to make the best of it. We were able to go in the middle of the week when it wasn't nearly as crowded and early in the month when it was still super warm. It was a trip to go down in the books! We, and especially Aimee, can't wait to go next year!
