we've been visiting the pumpkin farm -- well going on 11 years now and even though we grow pumpkins in our garden the kids still wanted to visit the pumpkin patch in Oly. this makes me happy-- i was getting worried that they may have outgrown it? does this happen?-- i'm not ready for that because i really enjoy this family outing and the patch too. this year did not disappoint, there were the same favorite activities and a few new ones in addition to riding the ol' tractor out to the pumpkin fields to find the best pumpkins. here are a few photos...
pumpkins....
feeding the goats outside...
and inside the barn...
apparently it tickles- a lot...
this year we got to feed the llama too...
next up, the corn maze - we tried the 'big one'....
and we needed to consult the map (just a few times).....
the sun broke through the clouds in time for the tractor ride out to the pumpkin fields....
hmmmm, which one? which one?
so many choices....
very scenic property...
this looks like the one...
awaiting our ride...
loading 'er up...
a happy face....
and another....
a fun day for us all.
