Pumpkin Patch Field Trip

Today was a big day!  Lane got to go on his very first field trip and ride on a real school bus for the very first time!  He has been wanting to ride on a real school bus forever so today was a dream come true!   The pumpkin patch was about an hour away so it was a nice long ride.  The kids got to make pumpkin t-shirts for the day and they were all so cute.

 We got to go through the sorghum maze.  It looked like corn, but we learned there is a difference between sorghum and corn.  When Lane walks through the hall at school he puts his hands behind his back and puts a bubble in his mouth, he followed the rules even in the maze.

Marlee got to go to the pumpkin patch too.  Being a little sister has it's perks!

The kids got to roam the pumpkin patch to look at all the different kinds of pumpkins.  Lane stopped for a quick minute so I could take a picture of him with his buddies - Jay and Shartak.

After the kids looked around for awhile they got to pick their own small pumpkin off the vine.  

 Lane and his friends were all very proud of the pumpkins they chose.

Marlee got her very own pumpkin just for being cute.

The kids all stopped for a quick class picture.

Lane found a big pumpkin to pose for a picture on.

Everyone had a picnic outside and had enough time left over to play on the giant hay bale slides.  Lane and his friends could have played on them all day.

And the highlight of the day - time to get back on the "big yellow school bus" for the ride home!

Lane's first field trip was so much fun and I am so glad that we were able to be a part of it.
