Pumpkin Patch!

On Saturday, October 13, we had our annual "Day at the Pumpkin Patch" with the Opfar side of the family. Loni and I decided to bring Ellis' cousin Donnie along. It was a beautiful day and everyone had a blast! We went to Maris Farms in Buckley and they had a ton of stuff to do. Donnie and Ellis had a blast in the corn kernal room. They also rode tractors, played in the inflatable jumpy thingy (the scientific term, I know), saw the animals and played around the pumpkin patch. There were also pig races and Donnie held the sign for the Red Team's piglet - which won! My parents and brothers and their wives/fiance's did the corn maze, which Loni and I wanted to do, but then we realized that it would be impossible with a six-month-old and an 21-month-old. Everyone else had fun in the maze and it took them about 25-30 minutes to complete. We had hot dogs, roasted corn, lemonade and lots of fun! All in all, it was a great way to kick off fall!
