This Year: Frogerg's Farms.
We've been to this one before, but not for pumpkins! This was their first year to attempt the fall re-creation, and they did a pretty good job! It was actually completely age appropriate for our little crew, but a group of elementary schoolers would have been bored.
Next up, the games. Without question, Sam's favorite was the Duck Race. A water pump, a trough and a plastic ducky he got to bring home. One ticket got him the duck, and he raced that thing over and over and over again. And, in case you haven't noticed, Sam sticks his tongue out to the side when he's working hard on something. Just like me.
He quickly figured out that the bottom pumpkin mouth was the easiest to get the bag through. I actually saw him get more in then most other kids! And he brought home two tiny dinosaurs, a star ring and an elephant bracelet.
Both kiddos wanted glitter tattoos. 36 hours later and they're still hanging on there. They both sat very still, paying close attention to the work being done.
And because its really a strawberry farm, we came home heavy one strawberry plant. Anyone want to place bets on our ability to keep it alive?
Finally it was time to board the hay ride. Annabelle's face when the tractor started to move was perfectly priceless!
At the end of the ride was the corn maze. Believe it or not, Sam was pretty good at picking his way through it. It was a bit muddy, but Sam could look through the stalks and find paths that we could fit through without destroying our shoes.
A grabbed a few pumpkins, picked up some treats in the store and were headed on our way. Not a perfect farm, but a fun family day. Sam is already asking to go back!
