Pumpkin Patch

One weekend before Halloween, mama and daddy and Kai and I decided to go to a pumpkin patch. There are a few of them around here, and the big one we really wanted to go to was super busy so we stopped at a teeny little stand. There weren’t any big corn mazes (or any mazes, for that matter), or anything like that. They had pumpkins, and pumpkins they had.

And they also had a tractor wagon.

THEN, the next Friday, mama came home from work early and we went to the big, fun pumpkin patch. Just the two of us. You won’t believe all the things they had for us to do!

They had a huuuge barrel pyramid!

And a huuuge corn maze! That we got a little lost in. I was pretty worried that we wouldn’t get out. It started raining while we were in there and I was slip-sliding around in the mud. I held on tight to mama’s hand so I wouldn’t fall. We were lucky once or twice that we didn’t both fall.

Don’t worry, we made it out of the maze.

After that, I wanted to go on the hayride. It went out to the pumpkin patch and back. We didn’t get out at the patch; we already had enough pumpkins at home. So we just made a round trip out of it.

We went to the pumpkin launch (big slingshots for launching baby pumpkins) and then I spent some time in a hay bale maze. It was under cover in a barn and it was sure nice to stay dry for a while.

Checked out the animals. There was a food dispenser that you could put money in and it would give you food that you could give to the animals out of your hand. Fun!

This is one of the chickens we met.

We did a few more rounds to the pyramid, and the hay maze, and then we got some hot chocolate and went home. It was such a great time. Just me and my mom.
