Pumpkin patch Oct. 15

Today we joined Katie, Hudson, & Hannah at Hidden Acres Farm in Greenbluff. 

It was perfect for Colton! There was do much to do and it was an organized tour so the pace was perfect for our toddler. 

We took a hayride pulled by a tractor around the farm. It was narrated which was very cool! 

At the Bee Talk we learned about how the bees pollinate the apple trees. 

In the apple orchard Colton picked an apple off a tree, polished it on his shirt, and took a big bite. The apple might have been his favorite part. He kept asking Katie "you have my apple??" about a thousand times. :) when he had a chance to eat it he munched it up, even after it went rolling in the dirt. :) When he accidentally dropped it in the pig pen he wanted it back. :-/ 

There was a maze made out of hay barrels that was perfect for little ones. 

Colton was more into kicking dirt and digging than choosing a pumpkin. He finally made time for picking the very best one. But then it was back to more dirt & pumpkin vine kicking. 

To finish our tour the kiddos sat by a huge pumpkin named Penelope who invited them to enjoy donuts and apple cider. 

We had a blast!!
