First we headed to the tractor-drivin' pit. Cole totally dug driving the mini tractor.
Addie pushing Cole on the tractor.
Then we headed to a big box of dried corn. There were a bunch of dump trucks, buldozers, and back-hoe loaders (see I'm starting to learn more of the "boy lingo") but not enough to go around--next year, Butler's Orchard, more toys and you'll have less tears in the corn box. Not pictured--Addie in tears because she didn't get the truck right away. And Cole doing is typical "Addie duh duh saaaaad" (with a finger running down his cheek like the drop of a tear). My children the actors--hysterical!
Addie and Steve rocked the giant slide....WEE! Cole didn't want to do it this year, we were all pretty hungry.
So while Steve got in line for the food, the kids and I hit the hay-loft. They LOVED it.
It was bouncy!
It was fun to throw in the air!
It was tiring--they're having a little sibling conference and I wasn't invited.
Then there was a post-hay-jumping game of Ring around the Rosy to shake out the rest of our sillies. Not pictured: our lunch of junk food and ice cream. The kids were too distracted to eat much food, but they both looooved the ice cream. We finished our cones while standing in line for the hay ride.
See you take the hay ride out to the pumpkin patch. We didn't realize this last year and came home empty-pumpkined. But this year we were determined to get the perfect pumpkins. Well, our rule was "you can bring home whatever you can carry" (hey, it was pay by the pound!)
Cole was almost lulled to sleep by the hay ride...almost but not quite.
We had a blast picking our pumpkins! But by this time we were all tired and a bit cranky.

Happy fall everyone (or those who are still reading this blog!) enjoy the warmish weather while it lasts!!!
