First Preschool Fieldtrip - The Pumpkin Patch

Little J and I got to go on his first field trip for preschool on Friday.  We went to a pumpkin patch that I have never been too before.  It was so much fun.First thing when we got there we took a hay ride to go find his pumpkin....it was very exciting.
 
After that we learned all about how they grow their pumpkins.  Then the kids got to ride in milk barrels behind another tractor.  It was raining - J is under the green umbrella.
 
They have a really fun kid area that has tractors and all kinds of activities for the kids.  J really enjoyed the "cow lasso" part....so cute.  We were here for a while because he didn't want to leave until he got it on the cow.
This farm is a Dairy, so they also had a place for them to practice milking a cow.  Real milk came out below this guy.
They also had water and bubble stations, which in the rain made really awesome bubbles.
In the juvenile barn they had build a corn pit - 9 tons of corn with slides and other fun things.  Jaron did tons of cannonballs in to the corn - and even made a corn angel.
  
They he got to ride around a track on some John Deere  tricycles.  Jaron and I have decided, we need to have pigs.  These two are name Miss Piggy and Wilbur.  They were searching for treasure the whole time we were watching.  Jaron said, "Mom, why are they making that 'oink oink' sound"....my answer "Well, because they are pigs"
  
He had so much fun, this was what he looked like on the ride home :)
