Preschool Field Trip to the Pumpkin Patch

As part of our co-op preschool, each mom takes a turn planning a field trip.  I offered to go first and planned the trip to the pumpkin patch in early October.  It's funny because I knew exactly how to do things at Pack's Pumpkin Patch in North Salt Lake, but everything is different here.  Luckily, there was one relatively close by that had an opening at a time that worked for us.  We were the first group of the day, which was actually perfect.  A nice lady had us sit in some little bleachers and read us a book about pumpkins.  Then she showed us the baskets we could use to get the right size of pumpkin and pointed us in the direction of the "school group" pumpkin patch.  Off the kids went!  It didn't take long for everyone to pick their pumpkins.  After, we walked around the property exploring their different displays.  We finished by eating the pumpkin cakes and chocolate milk I'd brought for everyone and then played on the tractors a little bit more.  It was a fun field trip and the weather was perfect.  What a good day!
Lots and lots of little pumpkin cakes.

Pumpkin Picking

I love the wispy stem on Joely's pumpkin...just like Cinderella's carriage.

Joely is blessed with lots of girls her age.
