Spent some time Saturday at Bishop's Pumpkin Farm in Wheatland, Ca. We love this place and go there every year with the kids. This year we decided to make it the spot for our October cousin play date. We met up with April, Peter and girls for the afternoon. There are no pictures of the kids in the actual pumpkin patch because we are going again in 2 weeks for their school field trip where we'll get pumpkins. Bishop's has hay rides out to the patch and back, a corn maze, train rides, a petting zoo (Mackenzie's favorite part of the day) gold panning for marbles, jumping in the hay (they have this big area of mattresses covered with hay) which the kids loved! (maybe it was all the dust they created, those piggy little kids) They have bakeries on site with every yummy fall creation you can think up including fresh apple cider and of course anything pumpkin. The kids and cousins really enjoyed themselves and so did we.
We'll be back the day before Halloween. Happy Pumpkin Carving everyone!

Had a great Halloween again! We all went to April's old neighborhood to spend the evening with her former neighbors (they have the best block parties all year long) We started off with a pot luck with about 15 families or so complete with "brain jello" mummy dogs, plenty of fabulicious chili and more. After dinner we all went out trick-or-treating as a big group. What fun! The kids loved spening time with their cousins and friends while collecting a ridiculous amount of sugary treats. Someone gave Lukas a full size bag of skittles and he came running down the sidewalk and said "look Daddy, I got spittles" He's never called them spittles before so it was great for a laugh. We got a bit of rain towards the end of the evening so it gave us a great excuse to head for home ( I was praying for it, since my feet were in pain after all the walking and I had to nurse the baby) Happy Halloween!
