pumpkins total. We went to the Elgin Christmas Tree Farm thinking they would have a cool pumpkin patch. Boy, were we wrong.When we arrived we only noticed about 5 cars in the parking area. We immediately thought someone was going to pop out, kill us, and hide our bodies and our cars. It was too eerily similar to the Texas Chain Saw Massacre. I had to laugh though. It wasn't funny that it seemed like we were going to die, but funny that we ended up at such a place. Mike and I have bad luck. We always get excited to do stuff only to find the places we choose lack any kind of appeal.
We thought there would be animals...which there were. A pig, two goats and some rabbits. The rabbits, however, appeared dead as it was 95 degrees outside. We thought there would be a cool hay ride, Halloween inspired. There was a hay ride...around all the Christmas trees, some of 
which also appeared dead. I guess everything appearing dead goes along with Halloween. Poor Cole and Jake. They didn't so much enjoy the ride. Jake thought it was so exciting, he feel asleep.

The boys will be able to enjoy it next year. At least we know the Christmas activities we have planned will be fun. Jake will really like the Trail of Lights and the Lakeline Mall apparently has an awesome Santa. Let's hope Jake isn't afraid of Santa.
