Pumpkin Patch time! We decided to go to Fir Point Farms again this year because we only had a small window of time today and we thought we better go with something we know then venture out to some unknown. Don and I have found that with the boys the ages they are, the less uncertainty and the more control we have over situations, the better off we all are!!!!!!!!! We had a gorgeous day on our hands. I mean, we were in shorts at the pumpkin patch, awesome! Other than the fact that it cost us EIGHT DOLLARS to ride the 2 minute hayride, we had a great time. After the above mentioned rip off, the boys scooted through a hay maze, observed some animals (I am one of those moms who does not let her child touch animals...gross), then we headed off to the actual pumpkin patch and the boys were both on missions. The both settled on two adorable small little pumpkins (too small to carve, so we had to go to Safeway to by a much larger pumpkin for carving, which cost less than the small cute pumpkin - didn't realize we were at a designer pumpkin patch, but I digress..). Upon noticing that Country Grains was catering the patch, I insisted we stay for lunch. After purchasing our food (which also cost less then our pumpkins...) we plopped ourselves down on a grassy patch to eat and did not realize we sat front row to the clown show! Just as we were finishing up, a clown came and set up shop literally right in front of us! So we stayed to watch but seriously, what is up with clowns for entertainment???? Not a fan! Really creepy, and I was really not liking the way he talked to the kids, not my kids but the older ones. Again, CREEPY! But after that we headed for the car but not before we took a ride on the Big Green Tractor! :)
