Fall fun!

This morning we went to a local pumpkin patch called Colorado Pumpkin Patch. I was a little worried about waiting so late in the season to go, but other than some wind the weather ended up being pretty nice. They had a small petting zoo that the kids checked out....

Here we are waiting for our hayride to start....

....and all of us after the ride. The kids thought it was pretty cool!
We stopped to get Parker's face painted. What did he get? A pumpkin, of course.
Parker also had his first experience with a port-a-potty, and that's all I'm going to say about that.
The slides were one of the funnest parts of the pumpkin patch. They were actually really fast and quite fun. I went down with Parker, and Andrew took a video of it that I won't be sharing here or anywhere for that matter. Here is Andrew with Parker....
....and Andrew with Sadie.
Parker even went down by himself!
Here is Parker climbing the hay bale pyramid.
My little cuties.
Mommy and son....
Both kids enjoyed wandering through the straw maze.
Little diva crawling through the tunnel.
Ironically, one of the things Parker enjoyed the most was the corn box....basically a sand box filled with corn kernels instead of sand. He kept asking to play in it again and again.
We followed up our time at the pumpkin patch with some lunch from Qdoba. If you don't know what Qdoba is, I'm tuly sorry. They are doing a kids-eat-free weekend, so we obviously had to take advantage of that! Stay tuned for a post coming soon featuring a very handsome Dinosaur and a very pretty Flower....

  1. I'm glad you guys had such a great time. Somehow we missed out on the face painting :(

  2. Hmmm....maybe they only do the face painting at certain times or something. It was an extra $1 also. We'll see about that video.... :)
