We got here!
I probably should go to one of the other pumpkin fields in the area one of these years but I've alway gone to this one. It is familiar and a tradition of sorts.
The red barn with its variety of animals to see is so picturesque.
Weird and wacky weather
Since I wanted to go to the Pumpkin Patch as a part of Genevieve's birthday celebration, we went regardless of what the weather was doing. It was a on again/off again kind of day. We had a bit of a shower while the kids played in the hay maze but as we were heading out to the pumpkin field the sun broke through the clouds.
Girls and boys in the mist.
Courtney and Charlie's first visit to the Pumpkin Patch together.
The dads
Har and Jess were smart to keep to the road and avoid the muddy field.
Danika was the first to find her pumpkin. I was planning ahead this year and brought plastic bags to carry them in.
Hay Ride!
We caught the last hay ride back to the barn. Our group was the only one out in the field at the end of the day so the nice farm worker waited until we all had our pumpkins. I didn't bring big enough bags for the boys' pumpkins but the rule is "If you can carry it out of the field, you can take it home". Charlie, Cam and Hayden all are going to have very large jack-o-lanterns.
Pretty birthday girl.
Wyatt on the hay wagon.
Almost the whole gang. The guys walked back along the road but the rest of us got to ride.
Alyssa and her Katie-kates.
Cousins!
The mud was really deep.

Traditional photo op
Hayden snapped these pictures while I shopped for produce before the store closed.
Perfect Pumpkins ~ 3 of them!
Two more! So cute kids.
Lyssa is working on another little pumpkin. Looks like she just stuck one under her shirt ;o)
Heading into the Hay Maze
Five pairs of rain boots were just the ticket today.
This is the first opportunity Genevieve and Danika had to use their umbrellas. They were thrilled!
Just for me
What would a long post like this be without a picture of flowers.
It was a lovely day all around.

Aw! Looks so fun, I wish we could've been there. Maybe when Daddy takes half the day off on Saturday we can take Henry to pick a pumpkin.
And Lyssa, you look so great in all these pictures! Way to be cute with a baby =)
