papa's pumpkin patch

Last weekend the little boys and I traveled to ND to visit all the grandma's, grandpa's and cousins. And to visit Papa's Pumpkin Patch. It has been two years since we've been to the patch. Logan was just over a year when we went. It was Bennet's turn to experience the fun and joy of all the things to do at papa's pumpkin patch.
We went on a Sunday, which was a very nice and sunny fall day. Which means loads of people. Now, in the cities we are use to having loads of people wherever we go. But we still had a lot of fun. And all the new stuff they had!!! Ugh, I can't believe how much fun stuff they had for the kids to do. These are the things we did (and I think we only did about half of the stuff available):
*a gator-pulled wagon ride around the property. (there were multiple seated wagons being pulled at one time so that about 20 people could ride. This ride was $1/person, and 3 and under were free).
*concession stands (to stock up on some pumpkin cookies, but they had pretty much anything there that you would like to have).
*wooden train, tractor, and slide (you will see in the pictures that you can climb in and around them).
*zip lines (Drew and Mallory went on this since they are bigger. Logan, Bennet and Sydney had fun watching tons of kids going back and forth on this).
*hay-built climbers (they had multipe of these and in various sizes. Logan went on one that he could walk on top of hay and go through a tunnel, or jump in a pit and throw hay--which he found out the hard way that he didn't like it going down his shirt).
*Soo line little train (Logan went on this little john deere mower pulled train ride around part of the property).
*another hay built tower with black enormous slides (Logan fell in love with this activity, asking people to lift him up to the slides).
*And last but not least, walking around finding our pumpkins with a wagon.

They also had a maze built from hay; a sling shot gun that I think shot out pumpkins to arrow targets; pony rides; I think there were relays going on; a log gym where you could climb over trees that had fallen down; a willow tree hang (hang from low limbs); oh, and a nature walk. And all of this was $2.50/person to get into the gates (again, 3 and under were free), and then some of these things were a dollar or two to do. How cheap and fun is this????

Well, being a mom, I needed to make sure I took enough pictures of the kiddos having all this fun. I had two cameras! I borrowed my parents and of course, I forgot to download them before I left to go home. So, hopefully they will get some to me to share. But here is what I have:
