Pumpkin Farm

We made our annual pumpkin farm visit last weekend. It was a lot of fun--both boys got to enjoy it thoroughly this year. We met Mike, Alisha, and Thomas out there, and my parents rode over with us in the spacious minivan. Everyone had ample leg room and cup holders.


Corn pit

The official pumpking measuring stick was moved inside near the activity area this year--it was harder to get the boys to stand there and make any sort of sustained and pleasant eye contact. Lots of exciting things nearby.





Ryan liked going in and out of this little tunnel area


Rubber ducky racing--they got to pump the water to move the ducks back and forth


Ryan gathered all the ducks he could find and lined them up before sending them back over


What's cooler than tractors, cows, and trains? A cow-tractor-train!








Me and baby


A piece of corn from the pit got lodged behind Trev's ear--I think it stayed there a good half hour or more until they got on the bouncy pad

Looking for pumpkins--Ryan had a bit of a hard time because he was looking for one with a happy face on it. Reading Halloween books gives children too high of expectations...
