Pumpkin patch day, Can I say that I know everyone goes out a pumpkin patch, but our local Sinkland Farms is the most beautiful place with amazing mountain views. I would go there even without kids, and might try that if they perform a midsummer night's dream again next year. It's a little later in October than we usually go out. It's a beautiful blue sky, bright pumpkin day, and our friends Karen and Doug join us.
walking out to the fields,
There was a lot of disscussion about what is a squash? what is a gourd? Reminds me of one of my fall favorite books,
The Ugly Pumpkin
Some of the gourds make music
oh, horses! We said hello and bye bye to them.
Karen throws kettle corn to Jonathan
Pony! Jonathan says, "Hurse, seat!" and looks longingly at the pony rides. So we said "no",
and move on to the buggy rides. This beauty has rainbow feathers in her hair.
They enjoy a ride
Jonathan doesn't look sure, but he has a great time.
Then Dorathea learns some cowgirl tricks. Which is good as that is her chosen profession.
Now onto Pumpkin Chunkin!
And climbing the hay bale stack.
And of course wooden cow "milking"
Full of kettle corn and tired from a day at the farm we head home.
Goodbye scarecrow, Goodbye Sinkland Farms.
