Pumpkin Patch Trip


We took our annual family trip to the pumpkin patch last weekend and we lucked out with gorgeous weather! Definitely not something that's a guarantee up here this time of year. Usually we try to go during the week, but since Mister is in school now that doesn't work very well anymore. But I might consider just letting him miss a few hours of school next time so we can avoid the CRAZY weekend crowds. It was incredible how many people were there and I was so paranoid about losing one of the boys in the play area that I don't feel like I enjoyed myself as much as I usually do on this trip. 

The boys each picked out a pumpkin - Mister was set on his being short and round. He was adamant that he didn't want a tall oval one this year. Pumpkin picked out the one that was next to Mister's. :) He's not so picky. We got to take a tractor ride, see the animals in the barn and the kids played their hearts out at the 2 hay pyramids the place had set up.

Here are some pictures from our outing. Enjoy!

I love your families tradition of going to a pumpkin patch. You always have the quietest fall pictures there.

I love these pictures and cannot get over how old Mister is getting! They are just too cute.

I also love how hilariously muddy all the pumpkins are! I'm such a girl, I'd make them hose mine off before carting it home! :)

I can't believe that no one commented that Pumpkin is actually SMILING in these pictures. Horray! :)

Looks like a fun trip. Maybe I'll go to a pumpkin farm next year...

Loved the pictures of Mister by the red wall and with the background blurred.
What camera do you guys use? I think it's time to invest as prices are so much better than before.
