Bishop's Pumpkin Farm (Trip #1)

Sydney had her first school field trip last week. Sydney was so excited to go to Bishop's Pumpkin Farm with all of her "Jack and Jill Preschool friends and their mommies."First, we went on a train ride. Both kids loved it!Sydney got to pick out her first pumpkin. The past few years, we've skipped the hay ride out to the pumpkin patch and just bought pumpkins at the store...I remembered why, as I was holding Sam, the diaper bag, two dirty pumpkins and holding Sydney's hand...and then had to walk across the pumpkin patch (trying not to trip over any vines) making my way back to the wagon! :0)Sydney pulled Sam onto her lap on the way back to the farm. Her reason: "I don't want my little brutter to fall out and bump his noggin."Sam enjoyed playing on the tractors.The kids loved the chicken show and pig races. Sydney sat by her good friend, Lauren.The kids all had a snack and some fresh apple cider before heading off to the petting zoo. Sydney wasn't sure what to think about the goats that were tall enough to look her right in the eye. Sam ran straight for the barn and poked his head out, playing peek-a-boo with the animals.
I took this while on the other side of the chicken coop. Sam was yelling "Cocka-doo-doo" to the chickens. (Note that he stepped in his fair share of cockadoodoo, too!)
