Fun At The Pumpkin Patch

Our visit to the pumpkin patch was fun and adventurous. We enjoyed hot cider, pumpkin pie and nachos with cheese. We had a blast in the corn maze and a fun ride on the hay wagon. My Mom enjoyed the day with us. You won't find any pics of her here because, like me, she hates to have her picture taken. The day seemed to go by fast and we didn't want to leave. The only down side to the day was the high number of bees this year. Good for Nature and the environment, bad for when you want to enjoy some hot cider.

Hope you all enjoy the pics from our wonderful day at the pumpkin patch.


My girls like to drees up in their Halloween costumes when we go the pumpkin patch. This year we have Wolfie and Mr. Mustachie. They really wanted to take one of the big pumpkins home. Of course I was a mean Mommy and said NO WAY!!!





Me and my girls. Wolfie hates her picture taken too, though you can't tell that in some of the photos she poses in with big Sis.






Just some little critters on the farm.




This is what they chose for their one buy at the gift shop. Yup, bow and arrows. I'm sure I'll regret this. they played with these things until dark. Even made me take them to the park so they could shoot them from the top of the slides.




Meet Skellie. She was my one buy. Can't believe I only paid five bucks for her. She hung out with all day at the pumpkin patch. She loved the corn maze.






This was a trap. As I was snapping this photo I was hit in the head by an arrow by Mr. Mustachie. Told ya I'd regret buying those darn things. We didn't have to worry too much about becoming lost in the corn maze. The corn wasn't very high but we still had a blast.



Don't ask.




They were having a blast posing for pictures. I'm very happy they were having such a good time. They had Grandma shaking her head. Of course, she says that how me and my sibs acted at times. I thought we were perfect little children growing up.



Not a bad price for some beautiful Halloween Pumpkins.






Some beautiful gift shop items that I could only drool over. I never seem to have enough money when I go to these places.







The two pumpkins my girls picked out. We will pick a night to carve these closer to Halloween.


I hope you enjoyed the pics from our fun day at the pumpkin patch! We had a blast and will remember this day for a long time.

  4. Hi Elle

    You bet. I think I bought the only Skellie. I thought some old lady was going to take her from me. She said she kept going in and looking at it and when she wne tback it was gone. I told her when I picked it up I never put it back down. I kinda felt bad but, not bad enough to give it up after I had her for an hour.

  5. These photos are so cute! I love how the mustache is attached to her sunglasses. This is like an instant Blues Brothers costume! It looks like you guys had a really fun time, especially with those bows and arrows. :) Thanks for sharing these pictures with us!

  6. $4 each isn't a bad price for a decent-sized pumpkin. Looks like you guys had a nice day.

    Thank you. We had so much fun and the rain held off. She bought those with her birthday money, she had to have them.

  8. Hi Eric

    The price is cheaper than the grocery stores. Even the snack bar and gift shop prices are decent. That makes it great for families. We did have a good time.

  12. What fun photos! You girls looked like you had a perfect pumpkin patch day. I dare say Skellie is happy to be in your acquaintance as I detect a smile as he has a tiny bit of a lift in the corner of his mouth. Happy to be among his kind.

    Great pics ~ And a sincere thank you for your sweet comments xM
