Earlier this week, the girls and I (along with Mimi) took our annual trip to the Pumpkin Patch!
It was a beautiful Fall day.
The sky was blue, the sun was shining & my girls were in great moods!
For the first time EVER at the pumpkin patch, they agreed to stand by the Pumpkin Patch Measuring Sign.

Neither of them have cooperated with this in years past, so I was glad to FINALLY get a picture of them by this lame sign. ha!
After the girls were "measured" it was time for some pumpkin patch fun!

Another first for us this year was to actually attempt the corn maze!
Both girls loved running through the corn maze. It was hard & we couldn't find the exit.

And, in typical Kate fashion, here she is grabbing her bottom because she has to go poop, but won't do that in public restrooms, so she holds it until she gets home. Funny girl.
There are a lot of perks about going to the pumpkin patch in the late afternoon.
One is that there are NO crowds. At all. I think there were maybe 10 cars in the parking lot. We basically had the whole farm/pumpkin patch to ourselves!

The downside of going to the pumpkin patch in the late afternoon is that most of the rides/activities were already shut down for the day. Like this "train" for instance. It was normally pulled by a truck, but not during off peak hours. It just sat there.
The girls didn't seem to mind, they still had fun climbing on the "train".
And, I loved the fact that all the rides/attractions weren't running. That saved me a lot of money!
Next up was the animals, which neither girl was impressed with.
Here is a quote from Kate when she saw this Alpaca.
"Mommy, I do not like that animal. Do not take a picture of it"

Well, let's just say my children wouldn't sit still for a picture (shocker).
I wish you could have heard Kate while I was taking this picture.
Kate was screaming, "Mommy! Stop taking my picture!"
