Curious Xander

Xander wore his costume to the pumpkin patch this weekend.  He could've cared less about the pumpkins, water pump, maize maze, or farm animals because they have tractors there.

Then he got too hot, stripped off the jacket, and rolled in the straw.

And then went back to the tractor.  Check out those monkey feet!
