Our Trip to the Pumpkin Patch

We made our yearly trip to the Pumpkin Patch in Pasco last weekend, and Hayden had a great time. At Country Mercantile they take you in the back of a tractor out to the pumpkins and then you can roam around through the field looking for that perfect find. Hayden was quite funny this year, since he had his mind set on finding his own pumpkin. Courtney and I both tried to convince him that we found the perfect pumpkin for him, but he kept saying no. So eventually we realized that he wanted a big pumpkin, and he wasn't giving up until he found it. Eventually he did - a 16 lb. pumpkin! Masen also had a great time being outside and dressed in his pumpkin suit. Of course he was smiling the whole time and just going with the flow. It is great to have one kid like that! After the pumpkins, they have tractors, a corn maze, and a petting zoo for the kids to play with. It was a great day and got us into the Fall Holiday season.
