pumpkin patch kids
On a very warm, blue sky October Sunday we packed up the van with snacks, diapers and my knitting basket and headed out to our favorite country (AKA non-commercialized) pumpkin patch, Fir Point Farms in Aurora. For less than half the cost of the other pumpkin patches in the area, the kids had a great time riding the cow train, playing in the nut house, jumping in the hay barn, getting lost in the hay maze, eating cider donuts and of course, picking the perfect pumpkin to take home. I loved the little farm store and the fact that there were no long lines or crowds of people like a certain, very popular pumpkin patch in the area. Oh, and we must introduce Rue, our newest little one - the blondie in the photos above. She's 21 months old and just a little doll. But more about her later.
