The Red Barn

Before all the Halloween posting goodness, a new tradition was formed with our second trip to the Red Barn for some good ol' pumpkin patching. Our dear friends the Robertsons, who we went with last were, came as well.  We made sure to arrive during daylight hours so we could take advantage of all the fun activities there. It was the most beautiful Fall day with blue skies and a crisp chill in the air.

One of the many attractions by the pumpkin patch was a maze. It was rather fun to race each other through.

I think Jeff was most excited about the huge slide. Last year, he and Paul were as giddy as little school boys as they went down over and over again in the dark. They thoroughly enjoyed it this year as well! As you can see by the state of my hair, you go down pretty fast!

We had so much fun racing around in these little tractor go-carts. We were out of breath by the time we had made it around the dirt track a few times! Jeff and Paul were loving it so much. They had to race each other, of course.

The grande finale was picking the perfect pumpkin. After searching high and low we decided on a nice round, orange one.

Family photos at the pumpkin patch! I don't know why I'm standing in a hole next to Jeff, I'm not really that short. And look at those Robertsons, aren't they the cutest? Yosemite in her little pumpkin hat...it's almost too much.

It wouldn't be Halloween season without a trip to the Red Barn for some pumpkins. We're so glad we could go with such a fun patch.. I mean bunch.
