Pumpkin Farms

I love all the changing seasons.

In the fall I love the colors, the crisp air, the falling leaves, football games, and pumpkin farms.

We got to spend a Saturday night with the older grandkids traveling through a corn maze. Mike was the keeper of the map and even though it took us an hour - we made it thru the whole thing.

That really is us coming out of the last trail. There was 2 and we did them both We are not just posing for this picture at the exit.

There was a young boy who had gotten separated from his family and so he joined our group. Turns out he saw Mike's USMC t-shirt. He told Mike that his sister is in the Marines now. She is stationed at Cherry Point. Mike walked out and met his Mother and Aunt and told them he was at Cherry Point too.

Then we got to spend a Sunday with the younger grandkids at Goebberts. This place just keeps getting bigger . It;s been a few years since we have visited.

First stop had to be the pumpkin eating dinosaur. Last time we were here Luke was just a baby and Roger was timid. Not this time... Not sure if they wanted to get closer or just climb the fence.

We spent a few dollars on feed for the animals in the petting tents and then decided to break for lunch before heading over to the Play area. Mary had packed sandwiches and snacks.

Mike can not pass up a roasted ear of corn. Ever!
Owen wanted a taste and then another and then another. Pretty sure he just wanted the butter. He loves his butter.

After lunch we head on over to where all the action is.
They have so much for kids to do here and so many kids running around. Crazy!!
We didn't have to worry about spending more money on camel rides or horse rides. The boys were happy just running around from playground to climbing haystack to hay tunnels.

When we left (after 2 1/2 hours) there was still more people coming in. Cops were out directing traffic. Guys were pushing out cars that were stuck in the mud in the fields. I was just glad we were on our way out.

2 great Autumn days spent with the grandkids.
