{ Old Baker Farms Pumpkin Patch }

Mom and I took the kids to Birmingham on Saturday to meet Amy and her kids for a trip to the pumpkin patch.  My friend, Holly, suggested Old Baker Farms, in Harpersville, and I'm so glad she did.  It was wonderful!

The kids had a ball with the corn maze, jumping in freshly picked cotton and riding horses!

 They fed the animals and picked cotton too.  

 The kids loved the cool hand washing station.

 I think picking cotton was one of their favorite parts.

 Big ole basket of cotton!

 Next we headed down to climb on the hay bales.  

They even liked riding the kiddie train.

The last activity was a hay ride out to the actual pumpkin patch.  Everyone picked out pumpkins and then the farm volunteers transported them to the exit gate and put them in our car when we left.  Such great service.  It's never fun lugging pumpkins all the way to the car!

 Before we headed out for dinner we stopped to take some family pictures.

In addition to all the fun at the pumpkin patch, we had a HUGE day in Mississippi football.  State beat Texas A&M and Ole Miss beat Alabama!  After those big wins, both our teams shared the #3 ranking in the poll this week.  It's such a fun time to be Bulldogs and Rebels! :)
