Bishop's Pumpkin Farm with Creekside

Our family visited the pumpkin patch early this year, Saturday, September 25 to be exact and it was on probably one of the hottest days of the year, or at least it felt that way.  Nevertheless, we had a fantastic time and got to spend it with our good friends, the Cunningham's, Savannah, Bethany and Gavin pictured below, minus Travis...
and Christina and Luke Walton hanging out with the donkey who they just feed a delicious $1 carrot in the picture below.
We had a great time at the Farm.  Evan especially had fun this year and enjoyed the attractions.  Here he is with Daddy next to the see "How Tall you are this Fall" sign.
 
He also loved the stationary train that he could run and play on.  Here is a great picture of him playing with Daddy. 
This picture describes it all about Evan at Bishop's...
 
He got to see and pet the animals with good buddy Savannah...he is very excited to see them in this picture.
Here they both are in the petting area holding hands with Mommy too and checking out the animals in the barn.  So adorable; they loved running back and forth in the barn since it was just their size.
Evie and Gavin had fun on the outside of the petting farm area in their strollers.
After the animals the kids got to jump in hay.  They actually set it up so neat.  It was a bunch of hay piled on top of old mattresses.  The kids loved it.  Here is a picture of Evan jumping mid air.
I finally got one picture of Evan looking at the camera that wasn't totally blurry.
After jumping we then went on a hay ride to the pumpkin patch.  We searched for pumpkins.  Evan enjoyed trying to pick them all up or trying to. :)  However, we actually ended up buying one at the main entrance when we left because it was so hot and we didn't want to have to carry a pumpkin around, but we had a great time looking.
After the pumpkin patch, we went back for lunch and more playing.  The kids got to play in the fun play structures the farm had set up.  Here is Evan going down the slide.
 
After playtime we took a final adventure on the train, ate a delicious treat and then called it a day.  Here is a cute picture of Evan trying to wait patiently for the next train ride.
We sure had fun and look forward to hopefully making it back to Bishop's again this season for more adventures.

Hey friends! What a fun day! I love that idea of jumping on mattresses covered in hay - I bet Evan loved that. We miss you guys and love catching up with you via the blog world. :)
