The Pumpkin Patch

This is our second year taking the kids to Anderson
& Girls Farm in Stanton Mich. It is a fun farm that
has huge fields of pumpkins that you take a wagon ride
to and pick out a pumpkin. They have animals galore
to pet and feed including a camel and emu's. We watched
pot-belly pig races and rode ponies and had fresh cider
and home-made donuts--yum!! Our good friends The
Haan's went with us--we had such a good time.
Here are some pics from the day.....
