The Pumpkin Patch

Saturday we went to the Pumpkin Patch on Sauvies Island.  It was a fantastic time!  The main attraction was a giant corn maze.  Last time we went we didn't get all the way through it, but this year we did!  WOOHOO!!

There were several other things, like a hay ride, climbing a pyramid of hay bales, seeing a few farm animals, riding a "cow" train which was a bunch of plastic containers cut out and painted to look like cows, and of course buying pumpkin's.  The weather held off for most of the day.  It did decide to pour down really hard when we were in the middle of the maze.  Fortunately we had umbrella's so we didn't get TOO wet.  It was a lot of fun.  A great way to spend a day.  And the fun weather made for some cool clouds which I had to take pictures of.

We were there for about five hours and on the way home Maddie crashed.  Surprisingly Riley wasn't tired at all.  Marci and I certainly were!  LOL!
