Autumn Adventure

It is October- and the rain paused for us yesterday and I am sure it was because we wanted to go to the pumpkin patch!  We are blessed where we live with at LEAST six farms to choose from within 15 minutes of our location- and this time we chose Craven Farm.  We dusted off our large supply of rubber boots in the garage and set out for an autumn adventure!

Here we are!

So much to see, lucky for us all in the same direction. ☺

 Craven Farm had lots of Mother goose pumpkin head nursery rhyme scenes set up all over the place.

This scene was designed after the "Up" movie that the kids love so much.  I love it too, it's a great one if you have not seen it.

We took turns flying to space in the rocket!

I loved the festive little decorations outside of the gift shop.

Here was my FAVORITE part of the trip- the girls spent a good 5 minutes wandering around the table looking for "the rest of the witch."  I had to hold back my laughter-- it was sooo funny!

Off to explore the pirate ship!

Next to drive the speedboat!

We took turns playing "scarecrow".

It was finally time to choose our pumpkins!

We meandered through some corn to find the pumpkin patch that held the larger pumpkins.  How exciting to feel so small in that tall corn.

Each of us carefully chose our perfect pumpkin.  They were all looking for a square one- like the story 'Spookley The Square Pumpkin'.

It was very beautiful!

Some scenery from our drive home.  Look at all of the beautiful flowers!

We especially enjoyed the changing leaves.  It was a fabulous time! ♥♥♥
