Since we had Landon's birthday party last night, my mom and I decided to take the boys to the pumpkin patch in Lakefield, MN for his actual birthday today! This is a yearly trip that we take, but this year it worked out great to fall on Landon's bday! The boys always enjoy all that there is to do there: playgrounds, walking mazes, Storybook Land, farm animals to visit, indoor play area with Pumpkin Patch bean bag toss, basketball hoop, and several other toys, tricycle racing track, barrel train, and a hayride to the pumpkin field to pick our very own pumpkins! Whew! It's always a fun time and something we look forward to near the beginning of each October. We also enjoyed a nice lunch at Poppe Pumpkin Patch Cafe before we headed home, and the weather was a little chilly, but beautiful! Now that we have our pumpkins, it's time for the boys to start thinking about what they are going to be for Halloween! Nothing is final yet, but it sounds like we could have a couple of Hawkeyes or hunters trick-or-treating this year...of course, they will change their minds several times before that day, so we'll have to wait and see!
