Farmstead Pumpkin Patch






































































































































































































































































































































































































































































10/16/09: Friday we went to the Pumpkin Patch with Johnny, Kely & Waylon. We had so much fun. Oh where to begin.........First we went in the corn maze, Justin & Waylon were leading us. Yes we got a little lost. Then we went and picked our pumpkins. There were some huge ones. And of course Justin had to pick the BIGGEST one he could find & carry. He is going to have a ball carving it. Then we watched some pig races, played in the corn box. It was this big box that was full of corn kernels. The kids loved it. Waylon & Lauren buried Justin in it. And they made kernel angels.....hahaha, when we got home and took the kids clothes off for bed, kernels everywhere. Then we did pony rides, and pedal carts, and rode the cow train. And we can't forget the giant Jumping Pillow. That was awesome. Justin asked if we could buy one for our own backyard.....he is silly!!! Oh and don't forget the huge slides. The kids were wiped out by the end of the night. They slept very well. Justin and Lauren are anxious to carve their pumpkins, so when we do that I will post those pictures too. And Lauren also asked me if we could make a REAL pumpkin pie, from the pumpkin, not a can. So I am going to attempt that...yikes!!!! And from scratch pie crust too. I will take pictures of that too. Lauren loves to help me cook & bake, it is her favorite thing to do with me next to buying shoes!!!!! Crazy girl.
