Here in the desert, we are heading into the home stretch. Which means we made it through the summer. I felt like it was even warmer than usual this year. They say state of mind is everything, though, so I admit that I recently bought a few things that are Fall related in Kirklands in hopes that it means that Fall is right around the corner. It’s still over 100 degrees outside but I’m happy that the month of October is almost here. Some people look forward to the pumpkin spice lattes from Starbucks, while I look forward to visiting pumpkin patches. And what better way to look forward to Fall than by planning a trip to a pumpkin patch.
Even though we live in the desert, we still have plenty of pumpkin patches to visit. MacDonald’s Ranch located in Scottsdale, Arizona, is graciously donating 4 tickets as a giveaway to its Pumpkin Festival in October!
Please enter the rafflecopter below for a chance to win four tickets. The contest ends on September 20, 2017, at 12 am (Mountain Time), and I will notify the winner via email. The winner will need to respond to my email within 48 hours, otherwise he/she will forfeit their tickets and another winner will be selected. Good luck!
And for those of us in Tucson, we have plenty of options, too, thanks to Apple Annie’s Orchard and Marana Pumpkin Patch.
My favorite thing about fall is all the pumpkin flavors!
My favorite thing about fall being from the east coast is the leaves changing to beautiful colors and being able to wear boots!
Wow a new pumpkin patch to try would be fun. Especially since it would be a day trip.
Sounds good. I love the fall.
I love the cooler weather!
We love Macdonald’s Ranch! It’s less than 15 minutes from our house, and we have taken our sons there the past few Octobers to get their little pumpkins.
My favorite thing about fall is that the daytime highs eventually fall under 100 degrees. Hallelujah! 🙂 (Yeah, Phoenix doesn’t really have a real fall.)
I love everything fall. I love the chance of weather getting slightly cooler, fall decorations and of course all the Halloween movies.
Bring on the cooler weather!! AND FOOTBALL. <3
The cooler weather and its our wedding anniversary
Oh this is going to be a hard decision to make. Fall is my favorite season for many reasons- cooler weather, gorgeous colors, baking, multiple birthdays including mine, Halloween, Thanksgiving and yes the decorations! Best season by far and I have to thank you- I have lived in AZ for 20 years now and never knew we had pumpkin patches here and moving from the East I have sorely missed them so thank you for making this post!!!
I love cooler temps and walks outside!
