Kindergarten Pumpkin Patch

The girls had a field trip to the pumpkin patch that is across from the August airport - I had never heard of this place but it is awesome and they had a fabulous time.  They rode the bus and I met them there and was "in charge" of them which I was very happy to do.  The first thing they saw was a huge slide - it was built on a hill and looked way too big for them but all their classmates and their teachers were going on it so grandma kept quiet and stood and watched them come down.  Lily and Audrey are so light they were going to fast and tumbled along with sliding and didn't try it a second time.  Izzy is heavy enough that she did fine and went a second time.  The place also had a huge air pillow - it was a bouncy device that the kids climbed up the side and then bounced on top.  They loved it.  I think they could have spent all day bouncing on it.  They also climbed around on hay bales, rode tricycles around a path, played on playground equipment and went through a milo maze which is like a corn maze but a lot shorter and quicker.   Then of course we rode the wagon out to the pumpkin patch where they got to pick out pumpkins which were much bigger than I expected them to be.  All in all it was a great morning and we all had a lot of fun.
