Pumpkin Patch Kids...

My favorite annual trip to take with the kids in the fall is to Gull Meadow Farms! Apples, donuts, cider, pumpkins, tractor rides and a ton of fun activities make for an exciting afternoon of fall fun. I've learned in the past year that trying to take all 4 kids anywhere by myself is quite challenging, so with the help of my sister Megan, off we went. Once we got there, I was soo glad I had a helper because it was PACKED! The first thing we did when we arrived was hopped in line for donuts and cider. After we filled up on all those goodies, we headed over to Pumpkin Lane where they have a ton of activites for the kids and lots of places to take some good pictures.

After we were tired out from playing in Pumpkin Lane, it was time for the tractor ride. It's the most anticipated thing for the kids to do, and they don't stop talking about it until we are finally on it.
Our group all ready to go...
Mommy and Lexi all snuggled up...

Once the tractor ride was over, it was time to go pick our pumpkins (and get more pictures of course!).
Alexis didn't know what was going on...

Once again, it was another great visit to our favorite 'farm'. I especially look forward to next year when Alexis can join in on all the activities with her brothers instead of just sitting on the sidelines.
