Frank Family Adventures: Pheasant Field Farms

Now that Ethan is in preschool there is no fooling him. He keeps asking me when it will be Halloween and every time I give him the number of days he gets upset. For some reason he thinks just because it is October that it should be Halloween right now. Today we decided to go to the pumpkin patch. Ethan was so excited. Since this is our first Halloween in Oregon I had no idea where to go. But after a little research on the Internet I wrote down directions to Pheasant Field Farms which ironically was located in Phoenix, OR about 10 miles from our house. They had many activities for the kids. Our first stop was the wagon hayride pulled by two horses. It was a nice relaxing ride. Ethan was busy taking pictures with his digital camera. After seeing the horses on the wagon ride Ethan was ready to ride a real horse. So we made our way to the pony rides. While waiting for his turn in line Ethan began to notice a foul odor. He was quit surprised when we explained that was horse poop. Hudson was following the music. There was a local band playing near the pony rides. Hudson saw several kids on the dance floor and of course he had to join them. I didn't think we were going to get him to leave. The boys loved the giant haystack. They would climb all over the haystack and slide down. Personally I thought it looked painful but they didn't seem to mind at all. Finally it was time to pick out our pumpkins.
