The Annual Fall Tour O' Pumpkin Patches
Fall is my favorite season. One of the reasons for that is that we get to go to all the really cool pumpkin patches in our area.
Today we went to Fog Willow because it is tradition. It was actually Dax's second trip to this pumpkin patch this year because his school took a field trip here last week. During the field trip he got to do a lot of cool behind the scenes things but today he got to do something new....ride a pony!
Dax's pony was named Pepper and I do believe the boy loved this even more than the hay ride.
While we were there he also climbed a giant pyramid built of hay bales, made his daddy pull him around in a wagon, played with a baby goat, attempted to pick up pumpkins that weigh more than he does, and dutifully posed for the obligatory photos.
Next weekend I think we're going to go to Bishop's because I've been told they have pig races there and Dax is all about pigs right now. He's so very into pigs that he's been insisting that he IS a baby pig for nearly two weeks now. So, yeah, I think that would be a big hit.
I just love fall!
