While we haven't done any real family trips to the big pumpkin patches this year, we're planning to go the weekend after Halloween where one of the local farms smashes all of the pumpkins. My kid will LOVE that and no pumpkin will ever be safe again!
We did take advantage of a 'Haunted Happenings' celebration that they held in our local 'old town'. It was a little kitschy, but N had a great time and even met up with a little friend from preschool. The local shops had candy so that the kids could trick-or-treat, the main street was closed for activities like spooky bowling (think paper mache pumpkin v. paper towel rolls dressed up like ghosts) and foam book marker making crafts, there were free hot dogs, and all of this craziness started at 10 a.m. N had a great time debuting this year's Joker costume!
That afternoon we also went to a local pumpkin patch. It's certainly not as elaborate as some that are near us, but it's a family business that my family has gone to for years. N has been almost every year, I think. Here are some of my favorite moments from our outing yesterday:
