A Trip to the Pumpkin Farm

Last year, our trip to Fleitz Pumpkin Farm wasn't till mid October. That seemed like barely enough time to even enjoy our pumpkins. So this year, Casey and Will and I went early to pick out our pumpkins. We had such a good time, I definitely want to go back with Craig in a couple weeks. (He was busy working at Kelly's again today in preparation for the wedding next weekend!)

Will picked out a pumpkin that was just his size and I got 2 larger ones for decorating. I have a cute idea for painting pumpkins this year instead of carving and I can't wait to try it. Will called the pumpkins: "puppies". It was so cute!

The Fleitz's had all kinds of kiddie and adult activities set up around the farm. Will loved the slide and all the colorful gourds to touch and looking at the goats. But he wasn't such a fan of the super tiny straw maze they had set up for kids under 6. They had some delicious, hot apple cider and when we go back with Craig, I'd like to try the hay ride and the bigger corn maze.

It was such a fun way to welcome fall!
