The Punkin Patch

Ahhhh, capitalism!

Does anyone remember having these pumpkin patches around when we were growing up? It is like someone just decided they weren't profiting enough from fall holidays and came up with the pumpkin patch to fill that void between summer travels and Christmas.

I mean, don't get me wrong, as soon as I found one nearby, I knew we would take James. He had a great time, but the $16 it took to get me and Mark it does seem a little steep. I am not sure it will be worth it when we have to pay an additional $8 for James next year.

We went to the "Corn Maze and Pumpkin Patch" at the Denver Downs Farm. Denver Downs has a SC certified produce stand and I have been trying to buy most of my produce from here. I guess that is why part of me doesn't mind the admissions fee because it goes directly to a local farm.

Notice the similarities between the pumpkin and the shape of James's head. Sometimes I call James "my little punkin head".

James and Mommy on the cow train. Note the serious expression that James has. That is when you know he is having the time of his life.

The biggest hit was the corn box. It is like a sandbox, but with corn.

James liked it so much that it took him a good 20 minutes before he started shoving corn in his mouth. Well, it was just a matter of time.

Game Day

We don't take James to the games because most of them are during his nap time. But we take him tailgating and to experience the game day atmosphere. He always has a great time. James wears number 1, just like the other James!

James didn't really like looking at the homecoming floats, but he liked to tear them apart.

His favorite thing was the grate in the middle of Bowman field. It was like he was walking on air, and he isn't even Willy Korn (AKA the second coming).

Where is Daddy's nose? James does get a little violent when he plays this game.

A BUS!!! Who doesn't like to see a bus drive through the middle of campus?

Vacation!

The family went to St. Simons this weekend for Fall Break. We had a great time! St. Simons must be the perfect beach town...not too built up with great restaurants. We got to see a lot of family while we were there. But first, of course, the dreaded car ride. James was NOT happy.

We stop at rest stops a lot these days. Be forewarned if you see us, you might be waved to death. Or, even worse, a glimpse of a plumbers crack.

James just looked like such a big boy in his booster seat eating his pumpkin muffins I had to take a picture.

The view from our "villa". If you wait until the last second and put my dad in charge of finding a place, you get a really nice condo for a lot of money!

James and Daddy on the beach. The only problem with St. Simons is that you have to wait until low tide to go out.

Cousin Anne and little K. It did get a little confusing with all the K's.
