First Field Trip

Today was Emily's first school field trip. It was to the pumpkin patch. Mommy took the day off in order to go with Miss Emily, and we had a blast!

Ready to choose her perfect pumpkin
We met her teachers and friends at the patch, and we all ventured off on our tour. First they all got to go through the hay bale maze. Lots of screams and squeals were heard as all of the kiddos raced through the maze over and over! From there we were told to head on over to the petting zoo part of the patch. Emily had a great time petting and feeding the goats, watching the chickens, petting the cow, and experiencing the joy of all the animals with her classmates.

After this we all got to go to the HUGE hay bale pyramid! They tried their best to get her entire class to take a class photo, and then they could climb, crawl, peek, sneak, and much more all over the pyramid!

Next came the exciting part. Each child was given a bag for their pumpkin. They were told they could only get a pumpkin they could carry in their own bag. Off we headed to board the tractor trailer hay ride to go out to the pumpkin patch! Emily LOVED riding with her friends and MANY screams of delight were heard by all of the adults aboard the ride! :-)

Emily searched for about ten minutes until she found a pumpkin she liked and could carry. On our way back to board the hay ride, she found an even better (in her eyes) pumpkin...a baby pumpkin...her way of saying a teeny tiny one.

After arriving back at the main part of the patch all of the kids got to wash their pumpkins, sit in the big tractor seat, pose for photos, etc.

All in all Emily had a SUPER time and is now sacked out down for her nap, waiting for Grandpa to come over and play when she wakes up! On to more fun later!

Enjoy the pictures!
Love,
Kathy
