A Fun Birthday Party

Jasper got invited to Norah Porter's 4th Birthday party last weekend. It was held at Matthys Farm in South Bend. There were several other little kids and some of Norah's cousins at the party. First, we went to a greenhouse where they had bales of hay set up as seats, and we had cake and Norah opened her gifts. Then all the kids got stickers that got them into the petting zoo. There were all sorts of farm animals. Jasper was running all over the place. He especially liked the pigs and the goats. He also enjoyed playing on the playground and pretending to drive the wooden truck and train. Then we all took a hayride out to a pumpkin patch where each child could pick any pumpkin they could carry. As soon as Jasper got off the wagon, he was off! He ran around trying to pick up pumpkins and saying, "Heaby" (his version of heavy.) He sat on a few pumpkins before finally finding the perfect one for him. We took the hayride back to the greenhouse and then said goodbye and drove home. At home, Jasper told Daddy about the animals he saw and the hay ride and all the pumpkins!
