The most sincere pumpkin patch we can find

Being completely transparent, two of my three children were not super enthused about going to the pumpkin patch this year.  I may have pulled out massive amounts of guilt like "you might be away at college next year" and "this might be the last time we ever go to a pumpkin patch as a family".  It worked and we set out to the patch that we found last year for a hour or so of forced family fun. 






Once he got in the sunlight and fresh air, Evan started to enjoy the patch a little bit.  Spencer not so much.




How can someone not have fun here?  It was such a pretty day.


Two of my children of the corn.



Someone is always grumpy in the corn maze.

And seriously?  This is not a hard corn maze.  You can basically see the exit anywhere you are in the thing.   Last year in the maze Hailey was seriously hangry.   This year we had Spencer who didn't want to be there in the first place and apparently wasn't feeling great in the tummy (which he didn't tell me until later).



Evan pose?  He didn't have to use the bathroom so I don't know what was up with him.


Forced family fun selfie in the corn!  I am so glad we discovered Bethke Farms last year.  It is just what we want - pumpkins and a little corn maze.  It is just about as bare bones as a patch can be and that is how we like it.

We will be back next year - at least most of us will.  Sob.

That looks like so much fun, and lovely day. Glad that you could talk all 3 into it! We are going to try to go to ours tomorrow, along with the rest of the Madison Metro area...
