a day on the farmstead

It's a rarity around here for daddy to have a saturday off, and mommy not have work to do/or shows to be at on that saturday, or just us not having other plans for the day. So when daddy had the day off and haylee had a soccer game in the morning- we had the rest of the day off- and WIDE open to do anything we wanted as a family. So we took the kids to a pumpkin patch and played all day. It was a beautiful day out- and we brought a picnic lunch and just played all day together.

mini haystack maze - it was so little we let the kids go in by themselve and we waited at the end.

They had a corn launcing gun- and the target just so happen to be right in front of cows- so it was more fun to see if you could hit the cows instead. Ethan loved this

We did a giant corn maze- and about half way through we told the kids they could be in charge of choosing which way we went. This kinda freaked ethan out because he kept saying "we're lost...maybe we should call tiki to come get us" (tiki is my sister lacy, and she wasn't even there)

They have this giant jumping pillow to bounce on! Ethan wouldn't have a thing to do with it- but daddy and haylee had a blast!

instead of a sandbox- they have a cornbox for kids to play in. Which was just as fun- and a little less messy - so I liked it

The only thing ethan wanted all day was a "baby" pumpkin... and that's what he got- it made his whole day.

Haylee on the other hand picked out the biggest pumpkin she could carry- which made her whole day too
