10.24.2008: Pumpkin Patch

Mom and Dad came out to AZ for Vicki's surprise 50th Birthday party this weekend. Friday night, we decided to take the kids to the Schnepf Farms Pumpkin Patch out in Queen Creek. Unfortunately we got there after dark, but it was kinda cool & creepy! It is a really neat little farm with carnival rides, a huge pumpkin patch, cornfield maze, petting zoo, pig races (wierd!!), lots of entertainment, food, and all kinds of other stuff! Unfortunately, Drake came down with the flu that day at school so didn't get to come with us. He, and we, were really bummed about that! But we went anyways, and had a good time! I got to ride a crazy little bee ride with Andrew. Andrew & Nana rode in their first airplane solo...with Andrew piloting...NICE JOB! No crashes, thank goodness! :) Kids found some baby pumpkins that Gramma and Grandpa bought for them. Nana wanted to find the most itty-bitty one she could, but the baby pumpkin patch wasn't lit and was too dark so we just went and grabbed her one ;) Oh, and Andrew got to dance a little too...which is always very entertaining!! A great start to a fun weekend!!
