The Perfect Pumpkin Patch

This weekend we visited the pumpkin patch - one of my favorite fall activities! The kids talked about it all week and we had an excellent recommendation from a friend for the pumpkin patch. It just might be the perfect pumpkin patch.

Searching for the perfect pumpkin. There were tons of specialty pumpkins. Laura loved the weird green gourds and Cayden looked for the smallest one he could find. We ended up bring home one big orange pumpkin to carve and a smaller white one to paint.

Cute kids on the hay pyramid. This is the best one we got.

Climbing to the top of the hay pyramid. Laura almost got there all by herself, she just needed a little boost from Cayden at the end. Coming down was the easy part, they just slid right down! Both of them ended up with hay in their pants/diaper. It took me a while to figure it out, but eventually I caught on that the weird wiggling and bum grabbing was from the itchy hay.

There were tractors (big and little) everywhere for the kids to play on. We temporarily lost Laura at one point and found her playing away on a tractor. 

Love this family of mine!

A little gem captured while taking a family picture. Love it!

Both Cayden and Laura loved the corn pit and would have spent HOURS in it playing. Grace wasn't a huge fan, mostly because of how many kids there were. Had it been just my three kids, she would have loved it too. I kind of wanted to jump in and play with them. It looked like fun. :)
