Mitchell Farms

I've been wanting to go to a pumpkin patch for the last several weeks and we finally found one (courtesy of Helen Price!) just outside of Collins, Mississippi, which is about 45 minutes away. I wanted to get some good pictures of Matthew, possibly in his costume, and for the price of admission, you get a pumpkin. Well, sorry to disappoint, but I didn't get that many pictures. By the time we managed to get there, it was about 11 am, so it was getting a little sunny for good pics, and Matt was pretty warm in his bumble bee costume. We were maybe there for 45 minutes, but I know he will really enjoy the place when he's bigger. They had ALL sorts of fun games for kids, like a tube slide, a rope swing (I wish I could have gotten on!), and the biggest hay ride I have EVER seen. Really cool. Not so much fun for a 3 1/2 month old, though. I really wish I would have taken more pics around the pumpkins--those turned out pretty decent with them all in the background!

 Mitchell Farms had quite a few animals created out of the haystacks--this was a cute pig.

 Great pumpkins! Notice the HUGE hay stack mouse in the background?

My boys!
