Week 81: Tate Goes To Pumpkin Hollow

Over the weekend Tate and friends made the hour+ trip up (almost into Missouri) to Pumpkin Hollow. The gourd/pumpkin farm has morphed into a tourist attraction which comes to life during the month of October. This place is the epitome of fall. There are pumpkins, gourds and mums everywhere! There's also a petting zoo; pony, hay and train rides; a corn maze; a pile of hay to play in; and a kiddie version of a haunted house. Well, there's other stuff too, but that's all we were interested in.
Chuck, Tate and I, as well as Tony and Cora Sue (Chuck's parents), Chuck's Grandpa Hardin, and Jason, Nikki and Carter (2) Turner.
The boys had a good time feeding the pygmy goats and playing in the huge tubs of corn. We even found a street sign "Tater Tots Lane" that we just had to get a picture of!




Then there was the pony ride...

Next there was a hay ride that lead up to the train ride, corn maze and hay bales....





But the fun didn't end there! Next Tate found a huge pile of pumpkins or should I say a pile of huge pumpkins. Tate actually got stuck for a second while making his way through the pile.


Of course we couldn't leave without attempting to get a nice "posed" family photo.
