Pumpkin Patch

We made our trip to the pumpkin patch this week for family night. There is a place nearby call the Pumpkin Place. I wish we had arrived a little earlier; we got there about 15 minutes before it closed. This made deciding on the perfect pumpkin a little easier because time to examine every pumpkin was on an option. We had told Sam he could get his own pumpkin and we would get another pumpkin for mom and dad. Sam decided he wanted a small “Sam size” pumpkin. As we walked through the field he would see a small pumpkin and then as we got closer it would become bigger. This happened several times and then he got distracted and forgot about the pumpkins all together. Go figure, the attention span of a two year old.

There were a lot of fun activities for kids including farm animals to see, a corn maze, pumpkin putt-putt golf, bowling and toys, a tractor to sit on and lots of places to take pictures. From the pictures you will see that we tried to take advantage of as much as we could in the twenty minutes or so that we were there. We were the last ones to leave.

We have yet to carve the pumpkin, so we will post pictures of that fun later.
