Bishop's Pumpkin Farm

We all headed to Bishop's Pumpkin Farm on Thursday, October 25 with Evan's Preschool.  It was a blast and a beautiful day too.  Everyone else in the area thought so too, because it was crowded, but ultimately you could still pretty much do everything you wanted to do.  The hard part was matching the energy window with our block of time.  We didn't get to everything, but did get to try out some new activities this year that we hadn't done in the past.

We got to see the Pig Races, which was actually a cute little story about the Three Little Pigs.  The kids thought this was pretty entertaining.

Then we all headed over to the Hay Ride where we had a scheduled time the preschool was to ride.
Elaine had a good time on the Hay Ride too...my little pumpkin.
We opted to not pick out any pumpkins on the Hay Ride (since it was just Mommy with the three kiddos and we had some we had purchased at Dave's Pumpkin Patch), except the cute little one we already brought along. :)
 
Here are the kids on our journey back from the pumpkins.  Cameron wanted to hold Elaine.  Here he is with big brother holding her hand too.  Evie is there as well, but didn't want to get in the picture, you can just see her hair on the side.
Here are Mrs. Netty, Miles and Ewan with their pumpkins.
After the Hay Ride we then got to go on the Train.  This is always such a highlight.  Here is a picture of the kids in the tunnel.  They loved this part!
Evan and Evie had a very good time as usual at the Farm.  Here they are playing on the giant tires after lunch and on the slide.


Our last activity of the day was just with one of our preschool buds, Cameron and his Mommy Julie.  Everyone else had to head back home.  We decided to take the kids to Coyote Mountain where they got to pan for marbles.

They loved this and then go down some awesome slides.
At this point, Elaine was all tuckered out.  Here she is cuddling with Julie.
All in all it was another great day at Bishop's.  This place continues to amaze me and we love coming back every year.

I leave you with two final cute pics of my girls at the Farm.

Elaine in her pumpkin outfit really was the STAR in all these pictures!!! She's SO CUTE!!!!! It makes you want to just smooch up her cheeks. :)

Kate and I really wanted to go to Bishop's this year but the day she had free was the day it rained. We were so bummed. That slide looks so cool and the maze looks fun. What a great place to go with your kids every year.
