This was our first time as a family to Bate's
It was actually my first time ever to Bate's even being a native San Diegan.
From the second we got there (could have been the long car ride there)
the kids went bonkers.
So much to do...
Feeding and petting the farm animals
Going on the pony ride... although he chose to pet the pony instead of ride it (said he didn't like the poo on the ground)
Picking out our $70 pumpkins (ok I'm exaggerating, but it was more than I thought it would be.... but I support local family owned businesses so I'm not complaining)
Picking out (and eating) yummy bags of candy... And can you believe it? The candy store was not their favorite part...
This was...
The look on his face was priceless.
Oh! Here it comes!
Tractor ride!
Feet firmly planted on the hay
Holding on to dear life (because for a 20 month old this feels like a real ride)
Looking at all the amazing things the pumpkin patch had to offer.
Truly a child's dream come true.
And when it was over, I watched him gaze over every now and again looking at the kids that were riding the tractor wishing he could do it again...
That is until
His best friend showed up.
Screw the tractor, Grayson's here!
Oh what fun did they have.
See you next year Bate's.
Thanks for giving this beach family a taste of the country life.
LOVE THIS!!!!
