This past weekend we went with friends to a Pumpkinfest at Camp Mohawk. Camp Mohawk is a popular summer camp and preschool in Westchester with everything from roller skating to horse back riding to zip lines. The girls spotted a Frozen inflatable and insisted this was the first thing they wanted to go in.
The went around and around for 5 minutes like maniacs.
Next was the obstacle course with the high slippery slide. No matter how you started at the top of the slide, you always ended up head first at the bottom.
Baby held hands with her friend T while standing in line for the inflatable obstacle course. T’s mom and I are hoping one of her 3 boys and my 2 girls will marry one day. I will make sure to show this picture at their wedding.
Baby walked up the wall of the obstacle course. She was the littlest one in line.
But had the best time.
While Baby was on the inflatable obstacle course, Princess was on line for Cliff Hanger. This slide was so steep. Half of the children walked up and back down because they were scared. At the top, there were ropes to hold on before you slide down. Princess usually loves this kind of stuff and she even said she wouldn’t go on it again.
After the inflatables, the girls played spin-the-wheel for a prize. Since the line was short, they played a few times and the game attendants let them pick whatever they wanted.
The girls went into the “pumpkin patch” and picked a pumpkin. I tried to encourage them to pick a small pumpkin since they wouldn’t be the ones carrying it.
Next, onto basketball. Princess made a lot of baskets.
Baby was able to at least throw the ball and get Grouchy Husband to smile.
We ate churros while standing in line for balloons. It was a windy day so we lost a couple but thankfully the line was short and we were able to replace them quickly without any tears.
We ended the day with ice cream.
And a group shot with the scarecrows and pumpkins.
The girls had a great time! I was exhausted after only a few hours of inflatables, games, and fresh air!
Happy Autumn,
The Dumpling Mama xo
