Pleasant Valley Farms Winter Squash and Pumpkin Festival~Sand Springs, OK

Pumpkin patches are such a fun cheap way to entertain kids!

I do not remember this being a thing when I was a kid.

Of course a trip to the pumpkin patch meant my mom’s garden…

This is our third year going to the Pleasant Valley Farms Winter Squash and Pumpkin Festival in Sand Springs and I still like it. It is a quiet out in the middle of the country kind of place and the drive alone is worth it. We don’t really do a bunch of things that cost money at these places.

But there is always something fun to do for free.

This place always has fun games for the kids to play. Rubber duck races. Corn bin. Bull riding/bouncing? Watching someone chuck a pumpkin. This one even has a small maze that is free.

They have animals also which is always fun for my poor non farm kids 😉

Are you a pumpkin patch fan?

This is a fun event, you should check it out next year or check out their pumpkin patch this year!

 

Tulsa Zoo with Family

Two of my sisters came down to visit the week after our area’s spring break, which was pretty much perfect.

The zoo was nice and empty, well until we came… That’s a lot of kids 😉 Perfect day for the zoo! The rainforest is beautiful. Cousin time was so much fun! So cute. We actually went to the zoo twice that week as well as going to the Gathering place twice!

We took our week off school that week which was pretty perfect and the week went by fast!

I was ready to hibernate in my house after all the fun outings!
