Patterson Farms

Today, we headed out with Brandon & Rachel and the kids to one of our favorite fall spots--Patterson Farms. We loved our time there so much last year that we just had to go back!

Here we are outside the Farm's little country store, where the fun begins:




Then on our tractor ride out to the farm:


We love Patterson Farms because it has SO many great things for the whole family, like SLIDES:


(including their famous 50-foot slide:)



(Trav and I took turns sliding down it with Grace, who is a BIG slide fan!)


TRACTORS:

(I love the look on her face, like "Look at me riding this tractor all by myself. I am pretty hot stuff!")



PUMPKINS:
(Grace givin' em a little love pat:)




(And with her pumpkin vine walking stick--pretty ingenius, huh?)


STILTS:
(This is one of my favorite things at the Farm. Here Trav and I are in a race, seeing who can make it to Brandon first. =))
(Trav struttin' his stuff:)
(I'm proud to say that my stilt-walking skills have greatly improved since last year =).)


SILLY PHOTO OPS:
(Don't we make a cute pumpkin family?)


CORN MAZES:
(In the kid's-size corn maze:)


(Grace thought playing hide-and-go-seek and peek-a-boo in here was super fun!)




(In the full-size corn maze:)

(This is me with a "V" for "victory" for completing the corn maze this time!)


TEE-PEES:




and SANDBOXES:


(If you look closely you can see Grace's mouth bubble. She's actually quite the accomplished bubble blower. =) )

So you see why Patterson Farms has become one of our fall family traditions? And we can't wait to go back next year!

Haha! I keep forgetting to change that! I just erased it though, so hopefully there won't be more confusion. =)
