Our Visit to the Pumpkin Patch!!




This morning my mom and I decided to take the boys to a pumpkin patch in Lakefield, MN (about 30 minutes from our house). We usually go get our pumpkins from the Okoboji FFA plot near Okoboji High School, but theirs didn't turn out this year:( I think the place we went this year, a place called Poppe Pumpkin Patch, will have to be a yearly event because the boys had so much fun! There's all kinds of stuff to do there besides just get pumpkins: cornfield maze (which we didn't do), playground, Storybook Land, see farm animals (goats, chickens, horse, pigs, rabbits, llamas), trike-riding track, mini-golf course (which we also didn't do), barrel train for kids, hayrides, a place to go and paint pumpkins, a restraunt, a gift shop, and the list could go on!! Fall is my favorite time of year, so I really enjoyed taking the boys there too!

Landon at the Pumpkin Patch!






Landon really had a fun morning at the pumpkin patch! I think his favorite thing was probably just being out on a farm and running around! I was able to get him to ride the barrel train with me, but we don't have a digital picture of that :( Landon was not very cooperative for pictures, so here are the few that I was able to get!

Logan at the Pumpkin Patch!








Logan enjoyed the pumpkin patch today!! I don't know what his favorite thing was...he loved EVERYTHING!! One thing I did not get a digital picture of was his ride on the barrel train...that was probably his favorite thing about our trip today. Logan cooperated much better than Landon for pictures, but here are just a few of them!
