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!!!
