We hit our local pumpkin patch Saturday and you would have never known we were in the middle of an urban city! They had it all...pets, hay tunnels, hay rides, pumpkins of all sizes and wagons and wheel barrels to haul them around in. We opted to stay local this year because the kids just aren't into long car rides right now and banking on them napping in the car is a roll of the dice. So we decided to make it pleasant for everyone and go just a few blocks away to the Clancy's Family Pumpkin Patch.The kids stopped first to check out the turkeys and bunnies and then on to the pumpkins...or "pumpin" as Cameron calls them.
The big challenge was trying to pick them up...they started with the huge pumpkins but we moved them over to the smaller ones so they could actually pick them up...they felt so strong! But Cameron kept trying to tackle the big ones and just ended up rolling it across the ground...so determined to move it.
Cameron was totally into all the carts and wheel barrels...she tried to push practically everyone in the patch.
We took a little hay ride through the woods and kids loved it. Timo fell in love with the tractor...not surprising since it has wheels and an engine...
Guess they needed to sit on the pumpkins to see if it was the right fit to take home...
Timo discovered the tunnels of hay and went in and out, in and out while Cameron liked to sit on all the baby pumpkins...pumpkins just her size.
It was time to say bye-bye to the pumpkin patch which Cameron didn't like at all! But what a fun time we had.
