Our First Pumpkin Patch of the Season

We headed out to Lee Farms on Saturday! It was our first pumpkin patch of the season and we were really excited. They had added a lot of new things to do and see this year and the weather was absolutely gorgeous which was nice but it was also a little crowded which wasn't so nice! But we immediately headed over to the see if they had little chicks again this year and the girls were so excited to find them.

Then we started the quest. The quest for the perfect pumpkin.......Maddy didn't take to long and found the her perfect pumpkin pretty quick.Josey on the other hand was practically in tears after a half an hour of looking. She just couldn't make up her mind. She was pouting because no one was helping her look for the "perfect" pumpkin however when I joined her and started making suggestions she wasn't having that either. She asked me to let her look alone. She did FINALLY find a pumpkin after we told her that she had to make a decision. This wasn't THEE pumpkin but she also picked this little baby one as well. And Lilly found MANY MANY perfect pumpkins and started putting them all into the wheelbarrow. We had to stealthily get them out of the wheelbarrow except for two. She had to have a momma pumpkin and a baby pumpkin. Then we fed and pet the goats....
did the maze with the slide.....
