Hayrides and Pumpkin Patches

What an interesting night! Well week for that matter. I think I have eaten a lifetime supply of chocolate! Things are looking up, and I am trying to be happy with life again. Last night I went to Santaquin with my Mom to visit my Aunt, Uncle and baby Cousin. Little Roni is getting SO big! He is 6 months old now, and it is scary how fast she is growing! She is really smart, and if you ask her to clap her hands, she does! She also is really good at standing and sitting up! I guess Amber said she gets to frustrated trying to crawl, so she might even skip that whole step!

Joe wanted to take us to a place called the Red Barn for Ice Cream. It is on a farm in the outskirts of town. When we pulled into the driveway, Kimmie (Amber’s sister) and I where totally bombarded when we got out of our cars! This older lady wanted to know if we where with the Singles ward. I guess they where having a Multi Stake singles shin-dig. They had a hayride and pumpkin picking activity, and then hot cocoa and donuts afterwards.

Surprisingly it was way fun, and a blast to hang out with Kimmie! I have to be honest it was a bit chilly, and I was still in my work clothes since I had left straight from work to go down there! When we got to the pumpkin patch, I found the perfect pumpkin right away! It literally looked like it had a glowing light around it calling my name! I named it Herbert, I really don’t know why, it just spilled out when my moms crazy driving mad him fly across the back seat! We got a few funny pictures, which should be posted soon. I have to have her email or Facebook them to me!

When we got back, we basically ran in, stole some doughnuts and left. Well, in a nut shell of course! For the record, really yummy doughnuts. I normally don’t like doughnuts, since they are so much sugar, but these where amazing! Homemade! We then drove down to Payson and went to a Mexican restaurant. I have not had good Mexican food in a while, so it was such an amazing experience. We ran into some of the guys that where on the hay ride with us, and one was not too shabby… We talked for like a split second, but I will be honest, I was totally hungry so the conversation did not last too long!

Since I am well, let’s be honest… Lame, we decided to go home after dinner. I had to get up early for work, so I felt bad that we did not go back to play games and watch movies. It is honestly an hour drive, and I was already so tired! I guess when I don’t get my afternoon nap; it takes a toll on me. Not to mention this week has been an emotionally draining week.
