Ethan found a great pumpkin within the first few minutes. And he now says "Ohhhhh Woooah" which is what he was saying in this pic.

Then it was time for a hayride!! Ethan was people watching - not so much taking in the scenery.
The hayride took us to a pumpkin patch full of pumpkins!
I stuffed 10 pumpkins in my purse - there was room.
After trying to pick up every pumpkin, Ethan moved on to something easier - pulling hay from the hay bails and throwing it.
There were a lot of other activities for older kids - pony rides, a bouncy house, face painting. We should make this a tradition since we all had a lot of fun. We did underestimate the temperature change from the suburbs to the prairie ... the wind was fierce and it was a little chilly in the open landscape of the farm. I was in heaven though - I have a little bun in the oven to keep me warm :)
In other blog news, Aunt Ali came to visit us last weekend and brought a special treat for Ethan! Click here for that : http://truebloodtrio.blogspot.com/#!/2011/10/cookie-monster.html
