Pumpkin Patch Field Trip

Davis' class went on a field trip to the Pumpkin Patch in Clanton. It was the first of the cold snaps and was quite chilly!

We had a fun day...we did the bouncy area, the petting zoo, rode a pony, rode the "Twactor Train", and then went off in search of the perfect pumpkin.

Oh- and the part Davis was the most excited about? Bringing his lunch. I guess because he eats at school, this was a novel idea to be able to pack his lunch. He carried that lunch sachel around for weeks. Even on the way home, it was in a death grip!

Interesting fact: one of the other parents on the trip knows the owners of the farm and they said that they have so many visitors each year, that they can only grow enough pumpkins for the opening day! After that, they have to truck in the pumpkins! So, if you were wondering how all of those perfect pumpkins are sitting so neatly and already cut from the vine, now you know!
