so today, the day before halloweenie, we finally ventured out to pick a pumpkin (or 5...) this was our 2nd annual trip to guthrie's pumpkin farm (the first time we went the boy was only 3 months old. and last year, you ask? i'm pretty sure we got a little lazy and bought a wal-mart beauty) anyway, i like this place, so i'm pretty sure it's a tradition we'll stick with. we easily killed half an afternoon there and the boy adored the farm. i'll let the pictures speak for themselves....oh who am i kidding? i'll add explanations to the pictures that i deem necessary (aka- almost all of them.)
we started out in the petting zoo.
and if you're interested, all of these fine furry friends are for sale. in fact, the sign informed us that donkeys make wonderful christmas gifts...duh.
the petting zoo was immediately followed up by the hayride hand sanitizing.
the hayride was a huge highlight. the boy pretty much took charge of that operation. he entertained the guests and made sure the tractor was in good working order.
we arrived at the patch and picked out our faves. ok, there is one little dud that is not a fave, but i won't say who picked out that gem.
we headed back with our goods.
and, of course, each pumpkin got a kiss.
we rounded out our time there with about a bajillion trips down the slide, a handful of tire climbs, and plenty of pics.
oh, and lest i forget....the boy's absolute, favorite, couldn't-stop-talking-about-it-the-whole-45-minute-ride-home thing about the farm? the kitty cat.
it's almost a shame he'll never have one of his very own.....almost.
hope everyone has a safe halloweenie!
