It's pumpkin patch time! Even though we currently only have one car (that only seats four), we knew we needed to make a trip to the pumpkin patch before the weather completely drops this weekend and the snow rolls in. It was everything a pumpkin patch trip should be, including the walking for miles in the pumpkin fields waiting for the kids to find the absolutely perfect pumpkin.
Daxton could care less about how perfect it was. He couldn't understand why we weren't taking home every pumpkin he passed.
It was tough this year finding pumpkins that fit the kids' visions because they were almost all exactly the same size and shape this year.
Eventually we found a pumpkin that was perfect enough for each one of us.
After the pumpkins we headed to the hay bale maze which is just as fun as pumpkin hunting. Jeremy was playing tag with the kids and found that it is a lot harder now than in years past because they can leap across the gaps like he can. Of course, they aren't nearly as sore as he is after all of that leaping.
Daxton grew tired of the hay bale maze and wanted to hang out in the tractors.
A good ol' traditional hay bale picture of my kids.
The only way to get our pumpkins and all of our kids home was to put McKenzie in the back of the car laying on top of the pumpkins. Luckily we had all shed our coats by that time so we could lay them down as a bed for her. Yea for small humans!
