We went to the pumpkin patch early in the year this year. We have found the earlier in the season you go, the less busy it is. We picked an absolutely perfect Sunday to go. The weather was gorgeous and perfect for a day of fall fun. Joey's dad and his family was able to join us too. The kids were excited to see their grandparents and Gracie always loves when she sees Addison.
Every year, the pumpkin patch does a different theme. This year's theme was Mario. Dawson was so excited for the Mario theme. We got to search all through the pumpkin patch for super stars, fire flowers, mushrooms, one ups, and Bowser. The ultimate goal was to save Princess Peach with Mario and Luigi. We were successful!
The kids had a great time in the corn pit and I think they could have spent all day in there. It always amazes me how entertaining kids find a giant pit of corn. They also like the slides and the water duck races. We did the hayride this year which was fun.
They had a great selection of pumpkins and the kids made it their mission to find the biggest ones they could find. They found some huge ones! We stayed at the pumpkin patch for several hours and it was truly the perfect fall day. I love our annual trip to the pumpkin patch. It never quite seems like fall until we have gone.
