Pumpkin Patch and Corn Maze

October 15, 2011 Post:

This year, with our move to Tennessee, we had to find a new Pumpkin Patch to visit. This is my favorite time of year and my favorite candid photos of the year! I just love the colorful trees and leaves of orange, yellow, green, and red and, of course, all the pumpkins. We drove about 20 minutes to Riceville, TN to Guthrie Pumpkin Farm and I think it is my favorite pumpkin patch so far. There were hay rides, a petting zoo, the pumpkin fields, food, tractors, the corn maze, and a big slide for the kids (big and small).

No Bama or Auburn around here, just UT Vols

Tractors are always a hit, especially with the little man.

Waiting for the hayride to begin

Hudson found a big one!

Hannah loved the big ones too

(we weren't aware that we had to pay by the pound for whatever we got!)

Typical- the best camera smile of the day was when he tripped and fell down. He usually thinks falling is hilarious.

It turns out pumpkin vines make a pumpkin field a really treacherous place. There were kids tumbling all over the place. It was still more fun than the pumpkin farms that just have a dirt field with pumpkins sprinkled all over. It was much more authentic!

Look, I can hold one!

We have our prizes and are ready to ride back from the patch.

I loved this little wagon full of pumpkins.

SO cute!!!

I loved this picture!

The Big Slide

Sweet little petting zoo (and the weirdest-looking donkey I've ever seen)

Hudson a.k.a. Calf whisperer

We had such a great day of family fun! Next time I'll make sure, though, that Mommy gets in a least one picture....just to prove that I was there!
