On October 18th, we went to the Washington State Pumpkin Patch in Marysville, WA. The owners sculpted a giant corn maze the shape of Washington State, complete with replicas of the Space Needle, ferries, the Peace Arch (on the American-Canadian Border) and the major freeways (complete with construction and closures, of course).
Although it was tempting to leave Ethan in the corn maze for a couple of hours, we decided to just do the hay ride, barn maze, pumkin patch, petting zoo, rope swings, donuts and apple cider.
The petting zoo had a special toddler area where the kids could hold animals. We were so impressed how tenderly Ethan held this little kitten! We were also glad he's not old enough to want to bring it home.
Boys and tractors. Inseparable.
What can I say, I have a darling little boy.
Better than a tire swing - a horse tire swing.
This experience we had in the hay barn documented in the following photos made Jeff and I seriously consider moving to a farm, buying a barn, stuffing it full of hay and turning Ethan loose. It reminded me of the visa credit card commercials.
Camera: $600
Admission to farm: $15

The hay ride. Ethan looks scared in this picture, but he was actually munching on Kettle Corn. Hmmm.
Ethan is a picky little guy. Here, he was on the search for the perfect pumpkin.
Found it!

YOUR KIDS ARE ADORABLE Julie! Ethan looks SO much like you! He has my permission to date Kaylee for sure! I miss you.
What cute kids! I'm going to have to remember that pumpkin patch for next year. Looks like you guys had a blast!
Absolutely loved the picture of him jumping with all the hay in his hands. What a fun activity. I wish it were still as green as it looks in your pictures.
