Our family enjoyed a fun day at Fall City Farms today. We went to the early service at church to make sure we'd have plenty of time to meander the pumpkin patch for the perfect pumpkin. We visited this farm a couple of weeks ago for the Harvest Celebration, and Eli was excited to return. He's a big fan of their animals and sandbox, and was excited to discover that they also have a large pumpkin patch. He's been very excited about pumpkins lately, and couldn't wait to pick his own. It was a pretty cold morning, so we got nice and bundled up...complete with Eli's "dinosaur" hat! (Called such because of the "spikes' along the top).
It may not be the cutest thing in the world, but Eli loves it, and I love that it keeps him so warm. After saying a quick hello to the animals, we headed out into the pumpkin patch on our hunt. 
Despite the patch being a bit picked over by now, it didn't take Eli long to find just the one that he wanted. 
Eli tried very hard to pick it up, and was relieved that Dada was able to carry it for him! :) He also wanted a small pumpkin that he could carry, and he was so excited and proud to carry around his own little pumpkin. 
After paying for our pumpkins we enjoyed a little treat; this is the same farm that has the yummy fresh mini doughnuts...mmmm! 
Eli also got a cute little pumpkin sippy full of (really) fresh apple juice - seriously, this juice was amazing. 
We actually got to watch them making it as Eli (with a little help from us) enjoyed his juice. 
We headed into the farm store hoping to take some home with us...unfortunately it was $10 per gallon! I have to say though, it was really good apple juice! :) We headed home after giving Eli some time to play in the sandbox. It was a great day on the farm, and we look forward to going back again.
