We went on the hay ride first. The tractor pulled us through the woods where they had a series of hanging "scary" things that moved or dropped down when you clapped at them. Ryan likes getting startled and hardly anything scares him. I think he was just laughing at most of the things.
Next, we let Ryan ride the donkey. She was so lazy and had this look on her face that said "could you get these crazy kids off of me?" Jimmy was holding on to Ryan's leg so he would slide off and Ryan kept shoving his hand away. He held onto the horn of the saddle like a champ. I guess he knew what he was doing... The lady leading the donkey said she'd never seen a kid not want their parent to hold onto them.
Whenever I would say "Gideeyupp" Ryan would rock his body and kick his legs to try to get the donkey to go faster.
He also got to ride the horse tire swing which he wanted to hold onto by himself as well.
Oh my gosh, this next thing was so cool. If we ever have room in our yard I'm going to have Jimmy put one in for Ryan. They just took a huge pipe and angled it up. They had some slippery plastic like feed sacks to sit on and slide down. Since Ryan is only 22 pounds he flew down the slide. He absolutely LOVED it. I think Jimmy sent him down the slide at least 10 times.
I think his face tells you how much he liked it.
He rode the tractor...
And finally picked out a pumpkin.

They had TONS of small pumpkins. Ryan was trying to get all of them.
He got a Frankenstein tattoo the day before. He kept trying to get it off of his arm but then realized it wasn't a sticker or band aid.
MMM. Pumpkin..
I'm not sure how the Green Level Gourd Farm was actually a gourd farm. I didn't see anywhere where they would grow pumpkins or gourds. Either way, we had a good time. We ended up getting our large pumpkins at Wal-Mart since they wanted $15+ for a larger pumpkin. They didn't really have too many left anyway.
We had a really good (and cheap) time. This was a great place to take a younger child.
