She's going with her preschool class on Wednesday. So I'm not sure if we will take her as well or just stop at the grocery store for some pumpkins to carve. LOL
Where do all the weekends go???

We went today for the first time. It was hot and I'm exhausted, but DS had fun. I also managed to spend $30 on pumpkins, so there's that.

@BananaPancakes: it is SO weird to see pumpkin patch pictures with people in shorts.

We haven't been this year. It's so crowded on the weekends that DH usually takes an afternoon off to go when it's less busy, but we haven't done it yet this year!

@regberadaisy We wore pants since we were walking through the plants, but I regretted every second of it. I thought I was going to die by 10am. Ha ha.

We're going tomorrow! I wish we had gone last weekend; it's gotten cold!

We went on Wednesday afternoon. DH was off that day. It's fall break for some of the schools around here so there were plenty of other families there, but it definitely wasn't crowded. LO chose two little pumpkins.

We went today but she just played on everything. We got pumpkins at Costco a couple weekends ago.

Friends from Australia are visiting this week so we might go Friday!

No. But there is one literally next door to her daycare so even though she's only two months old, we might go one day after daycare.

Just went today and it was unbearably hot (89 degrees when we got back to the car!) It was too hot and both kids started having meltdowns (maybe literally).

We went to a Halloween event at a place that doesn't let you pick your own pumpkin so we are going with friends to a pick your own pumpkin patch tomorrow.

Planning to go next weekend. Hopefully there will still be some pumpkins left!
I also really want to go to an apple orchard!

We're going tomorrow with our next door neighbor (as long as it doesn't rain).

It was hot at our pumpkin patch today too. I wanted to wear an orange cardigan to be Halloweeny but couldn't keep it on. And I opted for cold apple cider, thank goodness they had some. We didn't buy our pumpkins there though, they are SO much cheaper at the grocery store. Hope we can keep doing that in future years, though I imagine eventually LO will want to pick one from the patch. She's just a baby now. Got some cute photos of her sitting on pumpkins at least.

we went with our MOPs group on the 1st, but going again on monday and maybe another time with DH. but our pumpkin patches have things to do besides pumpkins. it's also a billion degrees.

We went on Friday but never buy pumpkins. We check out the farm animals and different activities they have. Pumpkins are too pricey, and we just buy them from Trader Joe's.

We went last weekend, and will probably go 1-2 more times. There are tons in our area. We like to go to the ones that have lots to do (pick pumpkins, hayrides, corn mazes, petting zoo, etc).

We went last weekend! So much fun. DS had a blast and loved all the toddler activities they had. We don't buy pumpkins from there though, just look.

We went yesterday, although it didn't occur to me until today that we didn't actually get any pumpkins! We looked at the "big trucks" (tractors), walked through the barns and looked at the abimals, and then spent a long time playing in a little area they had with tricycles, got some hot apple cider and came home. B had a blast, I just wish I didn't still need to go buy pumpkins.

Hah! We went today. It was freezing and snowed! So yeah no cute photo...

We are going tomorrow but I feel like it is going to be too cold for any good pics.

Yep! Last weekend. I was really tempted to say f it and just get some pumpkins at the store but my husband talked me into doing the whole deal (it is tradition, after all) and we actually had a lot of fun

We went today and had a blast at all the activities but were unimpressed with the actual pumpkin selection! We are going to go to another one next Saturday!

We went today. We went late in the day to coordinate with friends schedules and age was soooo tired. We had fun but I'm not sure about her. But we found a great place to go with lots of farm animals less than a mile from our house so that was a total win.

Yep! We went (Canadian) Thanksgiving weekend! The place near here has a pumpkin patch, corn maze, petting zoo and a bunch of other cool stuff. We spent a morning there before one of our Thanksgiving dinners. We ended up deferring buying a pumpkin until later though, and just enjoyed the fun, and brought home the free ( for kids with admission) mini pumpkins

Yes! We went yesterday, and I'm glad we didn't wait another weekend. It's starting to get really cold here. It was a lot of fun though. My 2 1/2 year old had a BLAST!

Not yet! Meant to go last weekend, but somehow, time slipped away from us. Gotta make sure to go this weekend!!

Not yet. This month, though for sure. She asked this morning if we can go pick pumpkins.

We've gone twice but once did not involve going through the pumpkins at all (I just really wanted cider mill donuts and DS loves the activities there).

We went apple picking a few weeks ago with friends, and then went to a pumpkin patch near my parents at Thanskgiving (just to pick out pumpkins for their front door), and she's going with her daycare preschool class on Thursday, so I think we're covered! We'll pick up our pumpkins at the grocery store this week.

We went last week on the way back from a short vacation because we had a hire car. It's the first time we have ever been able to do it and the minute we arrived a storm blew in, gusting wind, ice cold rain.. Not quite how imagined it would be
