On October 16, 2010 we took our children to a pumpkin patch that we found when Carter was ten months old. We really like it because they gear their pumpkin patch towards all age groups but they focus on making sure that it is family friendly. This year they added a hay ride which Carter thought was a ton of fun. He also really liked playing in the corn maze. The best part about this event was that both Carter and Bob took off in the same direction in search of their perfect pumpkin. Every pumpkin that Carter picked up was rotten and he was getting pretty frustrated partially due to fact that the guts of the rotting pumpkin that got on him. After about twenty minutes they both found the perfect pumpkin and proudly carried them around. I was also impressed that the twins did rather well to (granted they had just been fed and were asleep for most of it). I can not wait till the twins are old enough to search out their own pumpkins. It was also cute Carter made sure that both Tysen and Nadya got their own pumpkins but he wont let them have them because they are to dangerous for them. i was proud of him for thinking of his brother and sister.
