The Pumpkin Patch San Antonio October 2014

What is a fun thing to do with kids in October when family comes to town and you want cute pictures? Go to a pumpkin patch, right! Well, Jamie and fam, plus Terrie and Brad (Cam's padres) were coming to San Antonio for a day, Columbus Day, so I was looking for something fun we could do while they were here. I had heard about the Pumpkin Patch San Antonio and so I looked it up online and after some discussion when everyone got here, that's what we decided to do. It however, was not nearly what it looked like online. It was just an empty lot where they had brought a bunch of boxes of pumpkins, with a few games, one face painter, an old tractor, some petting zoo animals, and a little train. Anyway, that was my view as an adult... but we went ahead and I think it turned out alright for the kids. :)

Addy took a little while to figure out how the whole put your face in the hole...

...and look at Mom for the pic worked...

She almost got cozy with the cute little scarecrow... That was as close as she got to him :)

Here are the grandkids with Gigi and Grandpa

And our little fam... plus the pumpkin
trying to bust out of my shirt! :)

Addy was a superfan of the petting zoo! She and Eden spent almost the whole time there!

Petting the miniature donkey...

Spying the chickens...

Target acquired... Ready, set,...

GO!

And she did it!!! She caught one all by herself!

Fed the little cow...

Gave the miniature horse a full physical examination... Eyes,

Nose,

Mouth...

And even checked out the little pig's ears!

We tried to catch the duck, but it was too fast...

This goat became Cam's best friend...

But I do think that Addy's all-time favorites were the little chickens :)

After the animals, the girls all jumped in the barrels for a train ride...

Then while the girls finished using their tickets, Cam and Addy played on the tractor! All of the buttons and levers were soo fun!

Even though it was not the biggest most glamorous pumpkin patch, it was a fun little time. I will do more thorough research for future family activities...
