The Pumpkin Patch

After we finished carving pumpkins, we loaded up and headed to Old Baker's Farm in Harpersville.  I love experiencing new places with the babies, and this one didn't disappoint!  It had a little bit of everything-wild west shoot-out, corn maze, hay maze, petting zoo, horse rides, cotton picking, a train ride, a hay mountain and the pumpkin patch were the highlights.  We were all exhausted at the end of the day, but we had lots and lots of fun!

Pop and his girls




Maddie was full speed in the hay maze!  Little Bit had lots of fun, but stayed close to her mom most of the day!!


This angel was his usual precious self!!  He just goes with the flow!!


Children of the Corn............


Fun petting the animals!  Mr. Donkey was enjoying Maddie's headrub!

The hay mountain was by far Maddie's favorite!  I told Pop we were going to have to stack up some hay bales for her.  She climbed, slid and jumped for quite some time!  Lillian enjoyed it for a little while, then opted for a train ride with her mom while Maddie continued to play in the hay!




The wild west shoot-out was going on in the background, and was just a little too loud for Little Bit!



Choo-choo!!


Lots of fun on the horses!!


Picking cotton, or cotton candy as Maddie called it!



We headed to the pumpkin patch in a covered wagon driven by mules.  The pumpkin patch was huge.  On a very distant hill, there were several beautiful white pumpkins.  I am sad to say that Pop decided he didn't love me quite enough to venture over to that field!!!  It seems that 3 kids, 6 pumpkins, and temperatures in the mid 80's made that journey a bit much!!  I am now on a mission to find some white pumpkins!


Another fun outing is in the books!!
