the PUMPKIN PATCH

Our annual trip to Uesugi Farms was a blast this year.  Luckily it wasn't as hot as it normally has been in the past.  The kids had way too much fun, from a train ride to a cornfield maze.  Check out our 
fun times we had 
by following us below:

We started off with our pose, right at the entrance. Check out our kiddos in their home-made black t-shirts.








The kids followed the docent with the purple pom pom so politely.














Yay, the train ride begins.










The kids were all searching for the 5 golden pumpkins.



There were scarecrows everywhere.


They were so cute and funny looking.



The view across the fields was beautiful too.



They looked everywhere for those golden pumpkins.


Still looking.

Still looking.















And here is our first, golden pumpkin.













The entrance to our cornfield maze.

Walking along the inside of the field, there were beautiful, colorful boards that taught us all about the bees.



Someone wanted to kiss the bee to thank them for giving us honey.



Someone else wanted to kiss the ladybug just for being so cute.


Posing in front of the snail.

It's hard to see, but here is our friend posing in front of the spider.

Cheese.

Another spider fan.

Reaching the end of the maze.














We then head over to the bee booth and press our ears against the bee hive.  






















Next, the 
Pumpkin Lab






















Rules before the Sugar Pie Patch and Dora Pumpkin Patch.

Belly button to belly button.

















Bring on the Hay Stacks.

Yes, she is jumping into the middle of the hay.  And it was everywhere!
















 






Making new friends.














and keeping old ones. 
Remember me saying, the hay was everywhere?  

To this day, 3 days later, I am still finding hay in my home. 





You have no idea how hard it was to get a group shot.  For some minor miracle, we actually got 21 kids corralled out of a group of 36.














The pictures I don't have are the fun luncheon, the kids dancing on the dance floor, the herding to the bathrooms and the kids falling asleep after the long day of fun.  This has always been one of my favorite annual trips.  
Until next year with PattyKakesKidz. 

  Just had to get one last picture in front 
of the John Deere!
