Andrew's first day of Fall Break was packed with adventure. After the Wildlife Safari we had a little picnic with food we had packed from home and headed over to Vala's Pumpkin Patch. Tanner was a little tired but was a good sport and we all had fun. This is a "Scarecrow Band" that Tanner liked and probably would have sat and watched the whole time but we convinced him to see what else they had.
Here Andrew and Tanner are racing ducks by pumping out the water.
These were huge bubbles to jump on. They were pretty cool and Tanner loved to jump and run across them.

So instead of go-carts of bumper cars they have peddle cars. We thought it was a good idea. Check out the people in the background. This dad came peddling in and spun around fast and his daughter went flying off the side. It was kind of sad but funny after I knew she was OK!
Taking a little tracker ride. There was a fake old lady singing and making pies. Tanner said, "Look mom... it's grandma!" I don't know what grandma he was talking about, but Andrew said he was bagging on my mom! I think he was just noticing it was an old lady, because my mom doesn't look like that!

Andrew had a little trouble with some food he ate and had to make a pit stop! ;)
Enjoying some yummy Kettle Corn as we watch the Scarecrow Band... again!
What a woman!
Tanner wanted to ride this one but was obviously too small. So he just sat on it for at least 5 minutes. So Andrew and I just relaxed on a bench with Benson until Tanner had enough!Although we had fun, we probably won't go again until the last year we are out here. It was a long day full of fun.
Vala's is pretty big, a 152-acre operation with nearly 55 acres of pumpkins planted each year. It has haunted houses, a train, hay, and tractor ride, 5 acre corn maze, lots of games, foods, and other fun stuff! The parking lot looked as big as the zoos. Which was so weird because we were out in the middle of nowhere, basically fields just west of Omaha.
