Punkin Around

We went to this pumpkin patch for the first time last year. Since the kids had so much fun we decided to do it again this year. Last time we went on a Saturday and so I decided to try out the weekday experience this year. They only allow field trips on weekdays so I called them up and asked if a church group could go and they said sure. So, I got some friends and family together and off we went. The only day we could get a reservation for was the day before fall break which was a short day anyway so I let the kids skip school. Do my kids know how lucky they are???? :) Because it was a field trip day at the farm some of the kids' favorite things to do were closed. I wasn't sure they would recover from being mad at me and then I reminded them that they could be at school and that solved the problem pretty quickly.
Ethan was cracking us up because he seemed to have some goat whispering capabilities. They kept coming up to him and letting him hug them. What a nut that boy of mine is. I guess he may get it from me...... We had to take a picture of the guy on the hay ride in his army camo and his hunting camo. He kept disappearing and reappearing because he blended into nature so well.......ha. Lesson number one in fashion. Never mix camo's!!!! Lesson number two. Never wear hunting camo anywhere other than hunting or camping! Just sayin!

We packed a nice lunch and enjoyed all the activities that were open and had a very enjoyable and relaxing day on the farm. Life's good.
