Cottonwood Farms

Since we are a few hundred miles too far to visit Three Cedar's this year, we hit the 'net looking for a new place for our annual pumpkin patch trips. Mike found a little farm called " Cottonwood Farms" just outside of Boulder that we think will work well for us! Mack picked out her pumpkin and a few gourds. Mike and I will either scavenge Gram's and Papa's garden for a few pumpkins or grab a few at the store. In any event, here are pictures from our little trip:

It was a beautiful day with a record high of 80 degrees. The leaves here on the plains and foot hills of Colorado are still bursting in fall colors and there was just enough of a breeze to keep us cool!
Cottonwood Farms is snuggled up against the foot hills. Just close enough for some pretty pictures but not far enough into the bigger ranges to be snowy and cold!

Mack and the other kids had fun running through this straw bale maze:
You know I'm always looking for ways to show growth from year to year ( even though my little cheater is standing on her tippy toes)

I finally caught up to her enough to grab her for a picture!
