Max's first Pumpkin Patch

I do not think a blog with do this story justice, but I'll sure try.


Me and Mike wanted to take Max to the pumpkin patch. We weren't sure were to go and we had heard about this Right Choices corn maze in Missouri that was fun. When we heard Missouri....we weren't sure if we wanted to travel that far, but we were told it was closer that it seems since it's just right over the border. We had also heard Cave Springs was really our only other option, and since it was a drive as well, and we had heard it wasn't as good - we decided to pack up the car and head to Right Choices Corn Maze. We convinced my parents to come along. Mom drove....which for all of you that know my mom - add on about 30 minutes to your trip. Luckily for mom, the added trip time can't be blamed completely on her. Mike was in charge of directions.

So we're driving along - time going quickly - and we look like on the map we're almost there. All of the sudden we pull up the map on the iphone and our little blue dot was blinking in the opposite direction - we had made a left instead of a right - ahh! We had to turn around.
When we finally got there, we had a blast. There was a cute little pumpkin patch and lots of other activities for us to do while we were there. My favorite was the cow train - or mooo train, as max called it. I also enjoyed the hayride. It lasted a lot longer than we had expected, but it was a beautiful ride, and was a neat experience. See below some pictures and comments.


hey - atleast we tried to do this - I think it turned out pretty good for having a 2 year old
