Saturday 10/11
















Well, This weekend was another busy one if you are growing up Hillman. Harry and I started the day with some of my friends in Collinsville watching the OU V Tx game. If you are from Oklahoma or Texas you know what that meant. We cheered on our home team (even though we aren't really fans). We had to leave at Halftime in order to get a nap in order to enjoy the sdventures of the rest of the day.

Unfortunately, OU lost but since the Big Game was on TV our next adventure wasn't very crowded! The Pumpkin Patch! After Butch got home from work, the family ventured out to Bixby (yes, I felt like I went from on side of the earth to other all in one day!). Grandma & Grandpa Johnson met us there. Harry was very excited when he saw all the pumpkins then he noticed the petting zoo. Soem king people gave us thier left over feed for the animals. Harry attempted to feed the goats but no matter how load he yelled "Come Here Goats!" they weren't hungry. I am sure they had been eating all day long. That is something we learned from the petting zoo at the Fair, gotta get there in the morning if you want them to be hungry.

After seeing the goats, pigs, chickens, and rabbits, Harry rode the pony ride which he looked like an old pro. Which is kind of scarey to me since we just bought him cowboy boots (we wanted to give him a few inches so he could ride some additional rides at the fair...it didn't work). We then needed to pick out our pumpkins....he could barely controil himself with all the pumpkins to choose from. He loved climbing on them, running from patch to patch, and climbing on hay bales. We then went to ride the camel (yes...camels in Bixby, Oklahoma!). The camel ride lady didn't think Harry would be big enough to ride the camel by himslef (are you seeing a pattern here?). Harry disagreed, climbed on the camel, and held on. She was amazed and sent him out on his ride.
Well, we had a great adventurous day and he didn't even fall asleep on the way home!
Next weekend: The Circus
