The Love Bug's Trip to the Pumpkin Patch



There is this place in Willcox called Apple Annie's Orchard. It is a tradition at school for the first grade to take a field trip each year before Halloween. I had the pleasure of being the mom who got to go with this year. It was so much fun to see the kids amazed by the rows and rows of pumpkins.




The deal is that the kids can pick any pumpkin they like to take home so long as they are able to carry it home. Lucky for the bug, I was there to help. Apple Annie's also has a corn maze which is done with the same design as the new Arizona state quarter. It was awesome! The kids get to go through the maze and then take a hayride to the pumpkin patch. They also have an apple farm across the way; however, the apples were ruined this year due to a lovely hail storm. Bummer! Anyway, we had a great time and got a great pumpkin.
