F.H.E. at the Pumpkin Patch (a.k.a. parking lot covered in hay and pumkins)

This pumpkin patch was pretty fun because they had plenty of things that entertained Ryan without costing anything. They had face painting, a little pumpkin graveyard, a blow-up bouncing machine, tons of little quarter rides, a petting farm, pony rides (those cost money), a hay tunnel, and of course, pumpkins. We originally went planning on buying one to carve, but when we realized that the one that Ryan is holding in the above picture would have cost us about $13, we decided to get a similar one at the grocery store for $4.


Ryan spent a large amout of time just loading these pumpkins up and pulling them around in the wagon.



Katie slept the whole time except woke up at the end just in time for a picture with the pumpkins. As you can tell, this was an unplanned thing since she is wearing Ryan's old sweats in the picture. If I had planned it she would've been wearing something a little more picture-worthy.



We've gone back once since, and may stop there again this weekend because the kids seem to really enjoy it.

Tonight is our stake "trunk-or-treat". I've got no idea what to decorate our car with, but at least my kids have costumes.
