It’s about that time for our annual Tolmachoff Farms pumpkin patch visit.
This year the set up was much better than the last few years and because we went earlier in the day, it was cooler and less crowded. Braelyn enjoyed petting the animals and picking out her perfect pumpkin but she did not enjoy the chicken that was following us around the entire time. It was hiding in the corn by the pumpkin picking area and jumped out right above her which prompted her to run and yell and have uncle Chris pick her up the rest of the visit!!
We also went in the corn maze this year which started off to be quite simple and ended up with us lost and going around in circles for 25 minutes. It was funny and we ended up escaping by plowing our way through the middle of the corn and then finding the exit path
Braelyn was also brave and big enough this year to ride on the ladybug train which was pulled by an ATV down a trail next to the corn maze. She was proud of herself that she didn’t get scared or dizzy when it went around in circles.
We are excited to be going to Disneyland next week and we will have lots of pictures and information to report about the trick-or-treat party at California Adventure.
We hope you are all picking your “perfect pumpkin” and celebrating the beginning of the fall, holiday season.
Love to All!!

Looks like we’re missing yet another Disneyland trip with you. Ian & I are heading up there tomorrow for my birthday (gotta get my merchandise card!!). Just a shame my birthday wasn’t next weekend. Have a great time!!

Awesome pics and memories…and what a pumpkin! Bet that was the best one in the patch. Can’t wait to take Emma to the Pumpkin Patch this week. See you all at her party! Love and hugs, Sara

Those corn mazes and chickens can be scary sometimes so glad that you made it through safe and sound! Love the pictures – this is a traditional annual event that you spend including Uncle Chris and I know how much fun he has with all of you – especially the “pumpkin baby” as Grampie calls Braelyn. Love, Gramma Bonnie

How Fun. Love the pictures, especially all of the smiling faces.
Braelyn…what a wonderful choice you made for your fall pumpkin.
Can’t wait to see you on Thursday.
Love you so much!
