Pumpkin Patch 2010

We made our annual Pumpkin Patch trip this past weekend. Last year we drove north to Grapevine, TX. This year, we decided to try a farm to the south. It had all sorts of fun activities for the boys, starting with farm photos themselves:






Then, on to the pony rides. Lucas found a perfectly sized pony for himself:



And Josh was an old pro:

There was a fun wooden train on the playground:

And a petting zoo (FULL of poop -- when we first went in, I told the boys to try not to step in the little poop pellets and John just laughed. It was deserved -- they were EVERYWHERE! Completely unavoidable).

Fun halloween photos:

(and farm photos):

Sun was too bright, I guess, but still cute:

Then, finally, we headed into the actual pumpkin patch to select our pumpkins. Lucas found his first:

Josh had a harder time deciding among the larger ones:

And before we left, another round through the bouncy houses:

A little bean bag toss and some horseshoes (not pictured):

(P.S. Check out John and Lucas' matching style)

And, a final photo op:

John and Josh were in a heated horseshoe battle, so only Lucas made the last photo. Josh won the horseshoe game 10-9, so he left happy too!
