Pumpkin Patch Day!

The grumpy one made it through the day. We ended up going to a totally different area this year for our pumpkin patch. Usually we end up at a farm in Snohomish County. This year we opted for Spooner Farms in Pierce County. This location also had the added benefit of allowing us to go to the Sonic in Puyallup for lunch.

I'd have to say this was one of our top pumpkin patch farms. The prices were reasonable and they had a lot of fun activities for the kids. Granted many of the activities were for little kids but our two had fun just the same. Duncan, of course, had no interest in getting up for a pumpkin patch trip. He stayed home and slept.

One thing we skipped this year was purchasing our pumpkins at the pumpkin patch. This place just had their pumpkins out in a big patch of dirt. Not nearly as fun as scooting a wheelbarrow through an uneven pumpkin field. It was really crowded and we figured buying our pumpkins at the grocery store nearer to Halloween would be better.

E is hopeful that we'll be off the hook next year. I don't think she's going to get her wish though. Today both kids expressed an interest in us going back to The Farm so we can do the Washington state corn maze again.
