This is a great list! Unfortunately, when we were planning to go to the pumpkin patch, both boys were sick :(

It is frowned upon when I go through Home Depot, I always want to buy inflatables. I would love to go to a corn maze with my kids though.

Me too, Valerie. Me too. It is so dangerous. And yes, corn mazes are so much fun with the kiddos, just make sure you don't get lost!
