Sunday, October 23rd we all went to Old Baker Farm in Harpersville, AL. We'd heard about it from a co-worker of mine and she said it was lots of fun! We got there around 12:30 and stayed until after 4:30! There was so much to do and we probably could've stayed even longer than that!
When we first got there we stopped by the barn and petting zoo first. Jack loved seeing all the goats, geese, pigs, sheep, and horses! He even fed the horse several times and loved it! He wasn't scared at all!
After playing with the animals, we went on the hayride to the pumpkin patch! This was the biggest pumpkin patch I've ever seen! It had pumpkins as far as you could see! Orange ones, green ones, white ones, and even multi-colored ones! We searched around for a while to find the perfect ones, and we eventually found a small white one for Jack, a large white one for Kurt, and a white one with orange and green squigglies for me! Kurt actually found mine, but I wanted it as my own so he kept the big white one for him. Once we had our pumpkins, we got back on the hayride, and while heading back, we got stopped by a Civil War reinactment! It was cool to see, plus Jack liked all the "fireworks" (smoke from the guns and cannons)!
Once we dropped our pumpkins off, we walked over to the food area to get a snack. I got boiled peanuts and Jack and Daddy got a bag of popcorn. We listened to some banjo music, while sitting on a bail of hay eating our snacks.
After eating, we walked back over to the barn to see the animals one more time, feed the horse one more time, and finally play in the hay stacks since all the big kids weren't there anymore.
Old Baker Farm was a lot of fun and we made some great memories! Can't wait to go back next year!
