My Corny Kids

These little kernels must be mine! They look just like me in my corn hat. Today we went on a play date with my Mom2Mom group to Irvine Regional Park. They had the pumpkin patch set up in the middle of the train track with lots of stuff to do. Besides plenty of photo locations like this one we were able to ride the train and see some of the historical aspects of the park. We rode past a large flock of peacocks and peahens and plenty of ducks. One of the buildings there has wood shingles that the woodpeckers hide acorns in. The squirrels, who watch them, then sneak up and tear off the shingles trying to get the acorns without getting attacked by the woodpeckers. Dangerous lifestyle if you ask me.

Isaac thought he'd try his luck at picking this pumpkin to go home with. I told him nice try. He couldn't even lift it! He and Maxwell then took off and went through the hay bale maze and haunted house. We ended our day with them jumping and playing in the bounce house with our friends.

Well it looks as though the boys are still growing. I don't know how they do it with how picky they are with what Jeff makes for dinners. Every night there is some kind of complaint about what they have to eat. You'd think we were poisoning them or something. I don't remember being this picky as a kid but then our family ate mostly meat and potatoes and Jeff is a lot more creative with our dinners. He deserves an award for some of his dishes. It's amazing how good they are with what he hides in them.
