The girls were really excited about going. Their favorite part of the pumpkin patch is playing in the hay stack, riding the ponies, and jumping in the inflatables. The actual pumpkin patch is just pictures for Mom that they endure for the fun! Lyndsey was such a big girl. She kept pace with the big kids without missing a beat. She loved the ponies and watching the helicopter land and take off. Maybe next year we will she JM and Tyler ride in that helicopter!
We ate lunch ate the pumpkin patch before driving east to the Corn Maze. We had seen this advertised in a parenting magazine so we decided to give it a try! It took us a while to get there and we almost lost Lyndsey since it was past nap time! All the kids enjoyed running through the maze until we found our way out. It was quite simple to navigate through. It was not the challenge I faced 5 years ago with my mom, Tyler, Corynne, and infant Lauren in Pennsylvania! I thought I would be lost in that maze until the rescue squad came in at dust!
Again, the maze was not the highlight of the afternoon. Lyndsey loved the animals. They had a goat, pig, calf, rooster with hens and ducks. Lyndsey would sit and "oink" at the pig. She pet everything, including the hen who "pecked" her pack. That was so funny to see. She was completely taken off guard that the hen did not want her to pet it! The girls enjoyed to feeding barrel of corn kernals to bury themselves with. John Mark and Tyler's favorite thing was the shooting range with an airgun that propelled corn cobs into targets.
Needless to say by the time we finally got home, the kids graciously took baths and were ready for beds. We were all exhausted from fun!
