Great Pumpkin Hunt

We met the Smith's at Old Country Mill in Potterville to take Noah and Owen pumpkin hunting.  The place came complete with an apple orchard, pumpkin patch, pond with lots of catfish, a lookout, petting zoo, and a winery!
They both loved the wagon ride out to the pumpkin patch, looking at the catfish, and Noah loved running down the hill with me.  They both carefully selected their pumpkins, I think they knew what they wanted.  The only mishap came when Noah saw the ponies, and wanted on one, NOW!  The Dad's went to buy tickets, and this took longer than expected, needless to say that Noah had an epic meltdown.  However, all was OK when he finally got on the pony.  He didn't even cry when he had to get off.  He also really enjoyed seeing ducks. 
When we finally got inside, Mommy NEEDED to do a little wine tasting after that meltdown :)
Noah really enjoyed the wagon ride with Owen
