Pumpkin Patch Fun - 3









It's Pumpkin Patch time again, already! Today, my mom and I took the boys on our annual trip to Poppe Pumpkin Patch in Lakefield, MN...about 30 minutes from here. There's so much fun stuff to do there, such as: fun playground equipment, barrel train rides, hay rides to the pumpkin field to pick our own pumpkins, farm animals to see (goats, a cow, pig, llama, chickens and rabbit), trike racing track, Storybook Land, a graveyard (fake of course) maze, and a corn maze...and I'm probably leaving things out, too! This was our first year to go through the corn maze, and we had no idea how long of a walk that would be! The boys picked some pretty big pumpkins this year and cut them off the vines by themselves! Of course, after picking such huge pumpkins, I was the lucky one that got to lift them onto the hayride! After having lots of fun, we ate a quick lunch there in their neat little cafe, and headed back home! This is always such a fun time of year, and something we look forward to doing each year!
