This is our 5th or 6th year coming on preschool field trips to the pumpkin patch. The kids love it. Brig is lucky this year to have his cousins Jalyn and Ryker in his class with him. His other cousin Gavin is in the morning class with the same teacher and Logan got to come because I was babysitting him. So it was fun to have all the little cousins the same age together. Getting them to all cooperate for pictures though is a whole other story. That and combine it with the worst picture taker in the world and this is what you end up with.
When Alden was in preschool they use to let them paint the pumpkins. That was probably funner but definately messier and harder to get the drenched in paint pumpkins home without getting paint all over the car. Now they do the craft foam sticker which is much easier.
The kids always have fun going on the hayride. This year they started doing something new and keeping a tour guide person with us the whole time. It was kind of weird at first cuz we are so use to just running and doing our own thing but it actually made it run more smoothly and it was not such a long wait to get on the hayride or to try to get the pumpkins, I guess they are figuring out ways to make it work better since they are such a popular place so that is good.
I traded and left Lila with Uncle Ryan and took his two kids with me so it was really nice to not have to worry about keeping her out of the sun and trying to feed her and everything. I think it worked out well for Ryan too since Heidi was working and he is trying to hide his face these days :)
