Some friends of ours told us about this pumpkin patch that they visit every year during Halloween time. We missed out on going last Saturday before Halloween and were a little unsure if it would be worth it to go after. But we still made the trip to Lakeside yesterday to see what it was all about. As we pulled up honestly I did not think much about it....it was a farm that just looked like they had a bunch of pumpkins out.
But then we went inside........what an awesome place it was!! For the next 3 plus hours our kids were in absolute heaven and completely entertained. They did all of the following: went through a corn maze, practiced milking cows on pretend wooden cows, went on a hay ride through the farm, slid down cotton seed hill on sleds, petting zoo, played basketball, frisbee, tetherball, and football, roped a plastic cow head, jumped on a hay bed, played on their awesome playground, watched Daddy kick a 30 yard field goal, and at the end of the day picked out their very own pumpkin. Kids + Stuff to Keep them entertained = Happy Parents
It was an absolute blast and we are so grateful for the recommendation. We hear they open it back up for Christmas and we will be back for sure.

The cotton seed hill should have taken you back to your good old days in Gilbert, I remember quite a few weekends, cotton seed jumping in high school!
That looks like such a fun place to go. You guys are amazing. You just had your 4th kid and are already up and at em... You guys are such great parents!
Ha ha Maren!! It totally took me back to the good ole Gilbert days. The combination of the cotton seed and farm atmosphere put me right back there....
