Bates Nut Farm





We thought it would be a great idea to pick out our pumpkins today at Bate Nuts Farm- a place where my family always visited during the holidays, especially around Christmas to pick out our Christmas tree-which they don't do anymore! Anyway- we were just going to get our pumpkins but it turned out that there were a lot of other things going on. It was pretty entertaining. We walked around and looked at all the farm animals, went by the many tents full of cotton candy, ketttle corn, funnel cakes, etc. We also went into the Bates Nut Farm store which I love! So many cute decorations for Halloween, Thanksgiving and Christmas. It was just the right amount to get me into the holiday spirit, even though it was 90 degrees outside! Owen also ran into his former Spanish teacher from R.B High. They had a good little reunion and it was nice to meet someone so influential in Owen's life. So it was a great Fall day- nice to enjoy once again Bates Nut Farm.
