Every year we go to Bauman Farms-- One of the most intense farms in the world. In the fall they put on a multi-acre-family-fun-festivity. It has a corn maze, dark maze, banjo bands, great food, apple cider press, apple launching, hay rides, petting zoo, zip lines, swings, sock hop (blow up thing we are on) pedal carts and SO much more. I look forward to it every year. We decided to head off on Sunday. It was POURING rain so we got in at half price, and after an hour the rain let up and we got to enjoy all the things we wouldn't have in the rain. This year they had a pumpkin weigh off. I think this one is 1,000+ pounds. Just amazing! (Sorry I look strange in the picture). I think our funnest time was in the Sock Hop, which turned into the ultimate race where ANYTHING goes. It was ankle grabbing, body flinging, hay eating goodness. Unfortunately it was Ryan who ate the hay... and also Ryan who apparently is allergic to it. He was kinda' puffy when we left. I made sure to take pictures of Ryan next to a pumpkin since all my friends with children take these cute pictures of their children in the pumpkin patches. You can see the look of "why am I doing this Mrs. Hackett" on his face. It wasn't until after the picture that I told him. What a cutie. We all had such a great day. Leo even bought me a HUGE belgian mum for the yard. It was such a blessing to go again this year and have such a good time.

I am glad all of you could go and enjoy the day also. I wish we could have been there too. It is neat when you find seasonal thing like that to do each year as then you really feel like you are in a new season and have enjoyed it in a special way. I love your Bauman farms.

That day I think we were all big kids!
