Tate Farms

Every year we take a trip to Tate Farms.  We've been going since Caden was 4 months old and it has definetely become a tradition, which by the way, I love traditions!!  So Friday we headed to go have some good ole' fun.  I love Tate Farms.  They do it up right....combine for kids to play in, corn crib, corn train, hayride to go pick your pumpkin, huge slide, hay maze, and so much more!  One reason I really enjoy going there is you actually have to cut your pumpkin from the vine or stalk.  All the pumpkins are fresh and its so neat going to the patch where all the pumpkins are grown.  Caden could've spent hours there!  And then there's the food...fantastic!  I really enjoyed my fried peach pie...yum yum!  Nothing tastes good these days, but for some reason I gobbled that pie down in about 2 seconds!  It was a great start to Halloween weekend.

Day two

Caden woke up early tuesday morning ready to hit the beach! Mom let me sleep in, she had everything packed and ready to go once I finally got up! We headed down to the beach around 8:30, yes thats late for me! We are usually up at 6 am. The beach was pristine, no oil at all. We did see the BP guys walking the beach. That has got to be the easiest job and I'm sure they get paid pretty well to just walk up and down looking for oil! We headed in around 4 to shower and rest up before dinner. Caden insisted we go to pier park again. We found a delicious italian place to eat and let Caden do some more carnival rides!
