Pumkin' time

We decided to try a different pumpkin patch this year and headed out towards Tualatin. A friend had told me about Lee Farms so I was assured that it would be fun.

Before even seeing a pumpkin, we stopped by the puppies. These were pure bred labs, and the puppies were a hit.

We snagged a cart, which honestly was Quinn's favorite part of the entire trip. He and Erick hauled that thing everywhere we went, whether it had pumpkins in it or not.

Not so much a place where you walk out into the fields and actually pick a pumpkin, but this worked fine. There were a few different varities, and Quinn quickly decided that he wanted one of each.

What's with the face?!??

These gourds were pretty dang cool.

The hay ride was a big one, pulled by a huge tractor.

Face painting sounded like a good idea, but once she started on Quinn's cat face, he could hardly sit still - it tickled.

He didn't like the ears painted above his eyebrows. Once the paint dried it kinda itched. Rough all around.

Right next door there were three baby cows. They did not seem particularly thrilled to be a part of the festivities.

The highlight of the day? - riding in the cart down to see the bunnies.

The corn maze - not a hit at all. They were in there a while, and at one point I heard a plaintive "We're never going to get out of here! We'll be here forever!". But, they survived. I guarded pumpkins and the cart.

And what is a visit to a farm without a mama pig and her piglets? Not much, I tell ya.

The rain held off for the time we were there, and the sun even came out. All in all, a fine day at the farm.
