The Great Pumpkin Patch

Rob had the day off on Columbus day, so we decided to venture out and pick our pumpkins for Halloween. Last year, Hannah and I went with Mom, Dad, Grandma, and Grandpa. I didn't want Rob to miss out on the fun again this year since Hannah would probably actually know what was going so we waited until he could go too . Unfortunately that meant Mom and Dad couldn't go since that was the day they were leaving to visit Matthew but we still got to meet up with Grandma and Grandpa and had a lot fun. Here are some pictures from our adventures:

We decided to try the corn maze. Hannah was fearless and often Rob had to jog to keep up with her as she ran down the path ahead of everyone.

We made it out of the maze!

A love for riding horses begins.

That looks like a good pumpkin!

Our family!

This farm also had trikes to ride, inflatable slides, a bouncing house, a hay pile to run up, animals to look at, and a dinosaur who ate pumpkins, all of which Hannah thoroughly enjoyed and we had a hard time keeping up with her as she ran from one area to the next. We also got to take a hay ride out to the pumpkin patch (which was a lot bumpier than I remembered!) and they let us try fresh sweet corn off fresh off the stalk. Hannah loved the corn and after she ate every last kernel off the cob, I had to convince her to give me the cob before she started eating that. As a treat, before we left, Grandma and Grandpa bought her a basket of fresh cherry tomatoes (you will never meet a kid who loves tomatoes more than Hannah) and we bought her a few honey sticks for the drive home.

We had a great time and look forward to doing it again next year!
