Max was all excited. Landen, not so much.
They had a petting zoo for toddlers. Max was interested in a few animals. He didn't pet many of them though. He did brush this goat for a few seconds. After that he had more fun picking the brushes from the bucket and then putting them back.
We did a craft and made a fall spider web. Max did a great job of placing leaves onto the glue. This was his first real "craft". I let him do it however he wanted. I should have taken a picture of the finished product, but didn't.

We got lunch there - it felt so weird to be sitting there with these two little boys independently sitting/eating/etc. They are getting big!
At the pumpkin patch, Max spent a LONG time picking up pumpkins and then moving them to another spot/arranging them in a line. He could have done that all day if I'd let him.
He arranged these pumpkins on the bench.

Another fun activity, jumping down from the bales of hay.
Ready...
...Jump!
Landen took a break for awhile by himself
I think I'm starting to see some tired faces...
Yup, definitely seeing tired faces on these two
Last thing we did before we left was let the boys kick the soccer ball around a little on the grass
(against the rules of "no balls" but who is going to stop two cute little 2 yr olds?)

The boys each picked the pumpkin they wanted to bring home. They were so happy and wanted to continue to hold them in the car.
The sign of a good, fun day - - wiped out in the car.
It was a fantastic day! I sure love the Arboretum. (We stopped at Torchy's Tacos on the way home so I could appease a pregnancy craving for the cane sugar soda there. - - so it was really a perfect day!)
You got some really GOOD pictures! Loved them all!
