Finally, after a long year of waiting, we got to go back to our favorite pumpkin patch!We pass by it every time we go to Kansas City.
We always eagerly look to see if something new has been added and talk about all the fun stuff we get to do there. The Wizard of Oz Train and the Pumpkin Guns are usually what they are most excited about, but really we love it all.
This year I was excited because it was even going to be chilly weather. Perfect! Saturday morning, however, I realized that it wasn't chilly, it was just down right cold. It did manage to warm up just a little by the time we got there.
It was a lot of fun. They even had a new jumping thing that was like a huge pillow of air stuck in the ground. It was really neat!
We made it through just about everything, when the temperature suddenly took a nose dive. We were freezing and if I could have skipped the trip out to the actual pumpkin patch I would have. The boys wouldn't go for that so we took a quick tractor ride out to the pumpkin field, grabbed the best pumpkins that were within 30 feet of the tractor and got the heck out of there!
We actually ended up with pretty good pumpkins and we had a ton of fun--well not so much Eli, but maybe next year!
