The Pumpkin Patch

One of my favorite pictures of Jackson is from the Pumpkin Patch last year. He's holding up this huge pumpkin from his school's pumpkin patch. Imagine my excitement when we had the opportunity to go out to a real pumpkin patch this year!! A real one, where the pumpkins were still lying IN the patch and we picked them up!
It was a "Trips and Tours" event arranged by the one of the spouses of one of the students in Cody's class. We didn't really know that many people, but it was kindof cool, because the farm closes at 6pm, but they stayed open beyond that for us, lit 5 bonfires and we went to town roasting hot dogs and marshmallows for smores! Prior to dinner, we enjoyed the many activities that the Farm had to offer to include Jackson riding the "Cow Train", going through the corn maze, a hayride, picking our pumpkins and Jackson getting to expend some energy jumping around on the inflatable playground!
