Day 150...Pumpkin Patch

We decided to welcome the crisp autumn weather with a nice family trip to the pumpkin patch.  After some u-turns and a nice drive in the countryside we found Linder Farms.  Papa and Nanny joined in on the fun too!  So off we went on the hayride!

It was hard work picking just the right pumpkins.  McCall and Bodie immediately picked a little one for Rhys, but their pumpkin choices were much  harder.  After much deliberation they decided and off we went with 5 perfectly imperfect pumpkins.
Then we ventured into the petting zoo...and unfortunately it solidified in Rob that he desperately wants a goat.  Ya, that is just what we need.  Along with the goats there was a camel, pigs, a pony, sheep and a KANGAROO!  It was so cute...I kinda want one of those (just kidding)!



Then we snacked on the delicious donuts that I have heard so much about...all of the rave reviews did not steer us wrong.  The mini donuts did not disappoint.  I think I felt my arteries slowly clogging with deep fried sugary goodness.  It was getting really dark and cold, so the kids jumped in the corn box and made a "corn angel".  Weird, I know...


 The pumpkin picking took so long, that we didn't have time to get through the corn maze.  I still have the tokens, so we will make it back there someday.  Darn, I might have to pick me up a few more mini donuts...yummmmm!
