Pumpkin Pickin at Heartland Farms

After checking out the Pumpkin Patch with Owyn,  Xavier was upset he didn't get to go so we decided we would go back as a Family to find our Halloween Pumpkins.  This time we got to explore a little more of the farm.  We did the corn Maze...really just a walk through with some skeleton exhibits to check out.  The kids enjoyed walking in the corn.

Then they checked out the already picked pumpkins but Xavier asked if we could go find out own in the field so we just looked at these pumpkins we didn't pick one to keep.


Then we were able to find a nice lady they took a picture of the four us us.

Then they wanted to see how tall they were this Fall...we have done this at other patches in the past.

I managed to snap a few pictures when we were on the Hayride it was a bit chilly riding around the pumpkin patch and corn field but they kids seemed to enjoy the ride with the Orange tractor that was pulling us.


 The Kids did jump in the jumping pumpkin but this time we were able to try out the big jumping pillow!  The kids had a blast with this and so did we!  It was a lot of Jumping and bouncing fun.


We also got to watch the Pumpkin blaster while jumping on the big pillow... They were shooting pumpkins at a truck and car out in the field.

Then finally it was time to get out in the patch they had a wheelbarrow that we could use to bring back the pumpkins.  Xavier was super excited about picking out pumpkins he would find them and then deiced that he didn't like it.  Owyn picked out a pumpkin right away but it was too small we would be able to carve it so she decided to look for another one.

And we found it...by this time she was pretty tuckered out from the walking so Daddy gave her a ride in the barrow. Xavier tried to push her but that about ended with Owyn dumped in the field.


Then finally Xavier found the pumpkin that he wanted!  We ended up with 50lbs of pumpkin!!!

Owyn's Farm Friends Pumpkin Patch Feild Trip

Owyn was super excited about visiting the Pumpkin Patch with her Farm Friends...However on the drive to the Pumpkin Patch she got a little upset we were not going to "Her Farm School"  She was very concerned and kept telling me "wrong way" "not my school"  but I just kept telling her her teachers and friends were meeting us at the patch.  It was funny when we got there and got out and she saw her teachers it was like how did they get here?  So then she was happy and ready to explore with her friends.  First we stopped by the Picked patch of pumpkins as they explored the flat round pile then we got to see the pigs eating pumpkins for a snack....and the cows, little pony, goats, rabbits, chickens, goose, and roaster were all enjoying pumpkin too.  Then we got to jump int he pumpkin shaped jumper it was a big winner with all the kids.  We also got to go on a hay ride(which I didn't get a picture of) and then we got to have snack with our friends and after snack we got to climb the hay bails and do the slides.  At the end of the trip Owyn and her friends Kaylee found a swing to swing on together. 






At last we arrived home and attempted to read a few books but only made it a few pages in when I caught her snoring away...I guess the Pumpkin Patch can be exhausting!
