Pumpkin Picking

Since this was the first year in a long time that our family was actually living in the suburbs and had plenty of farms around to choose from to go get pumpkins for Halloween, we took a Saturday and had fun! 

It was a little chilly, and so we dressed up Preston in his cute outfit from Grandma…and Spencer photobombed the picture.

We found a place about 30-45 minutes away, and it was great!!! Excuse all the pictures, but Preston had a little bit of a photo shoot while we were there. 

And here are the results.

One of Spencer's requirements for the place we were going to, it had to have a corn maze!! This one did! So we broke off into teams of Spencer and I, whereas I was too slow, because I didn't run in the mud to beat Dad and Preston. 

It wasn't a great maze, because it was pretty much a circle with cut-throughs throughout. Spencer is confused.

It had other activity stuff for kids to do, like the giant spiderweb.

And a huge jumping/bouncing thing that was in the ground!!! It was crazy big and Spencer loved it!

It also had a little ride for the kids. We didn't want Preston to not have fun, so Tyler got in and held him. 

Then came the COOL stuff. HUGE guns to shoot pumpkins out of it so you could hit targets, hay bales, and a truck out in the field!!!!!

Finally came the pumpkin picking! We went on one hayride where we got to pick baby pumpkins. Perfect size for baby hands. 

Then we got to pick out the big ones! 

Such a cutie!!

We got our pumpkins and headed home. 

It was fun to go off and do this as a family, we'll definitely be doing it again next year!
