A couple weeks ago we went to the pumpkin patch with Ella's preschool class and my kindergartners. The farm had so much to offer other than just picking a pumpkin.
The kids enjoyed a hay maze complete with a tunnel to crawl through...
Lots of animals to greet and feed...
a huge hay pyramid to climb...
a hay ride to pick a pumpkin...
and this cute scarecrow ruler...four feet at age five, holy cow!
We even got a small pumpkin for Nicholas. We miss him constantly, but so much this time of year as Halloween was his favorite holiday. He loved to dress in a costume, say "trick or treat," and suck on the dum-dums our neighbor always saved just for him.
A couple of weeks later, we went to the Gesler's patch and got another (Pink!) pumpkin. Ella had a blast with her buddy, Dash, and she loved meeting a bunch of new friends.
Nikki hired a professional balloon maker to create amazing balloons for all the kiddos. Ella got a pink unicorn and later she ended up wearing Nikki's black cat & pumpkin headband.
What a great start to autumn!
