For conference weekend the ol' parentals and I took my boys and headed north! With Cory off hunting and it being general conference weekend, we thought it was the perfect time to get back up to Bear Lake. We had to wait for my dad to finish working for the week, so we didn't get out of here until Saturday morning, and we came home late Sunday night, so it was a quick trip, but we managed to pack it full of fun! Saturday was a rainy day, so we weren't in a huge hurry to just get up to the cabin, so we decided to take our time and make a few stops along the way. Of course we had to stop at Maddox for lunch, and while we were eating we looked over at "Paul's Patch" this great little fruit stand we have stopped at since I was a little girl, but this time, it was all decked out in Halloween! We couldn't resist so we headed on over...
They had set up this DARLING little pumpkin patch, with millions of pumpkins! Cody and Bo got so excited! I don't think they knew what pumpkins were, but they learned quick enough.
Right in the middle of the patch was this gigantic bull, with "Paul" riding his back. Cody had to take a minute to figure out what it was, and if it was real or not.
We had to walk around and look at ALL the pumpkins to decide which one we wanted...
Cody got into it, and he started pointing at the pumpkins, and turning them around to see if they were perfect and then moved on to the next to do the same...
Grandma and Bo were examining every pumpkin to make sure ours were the cutest!
We made our selections,
And then we had to pose for pictures!
Bo and Cody were lovin' life!
Picking our pumpkins was not the only fun part of the stop, they had this awesome little Corn Maze for the kiddies! Cody wouldn't go in at first, so I had to go in to show him it wasn't scary, and then he played in there for over an hour!
We made it to the flag in the middle, and I was trying to get Cody to look at the camera for a picture...
He was just looking at me like I was a freak...
And finally, he looked over and we got a cute picture!
It was totally raining the whole time we were there, so we are all a little water logged.
We finished picking out our pumpkins and then went to pick out some peaches, and veggies. Since it was raining, the water was pouring out of the rain gutter things on the tent, and Cody thought it was hilarious!
At first he would just run under the drips fast,
Then he started standing right under them and let them get him soaking wet...
And then you know what comes next...
