*Disclaimer: When I say "October 2013", what I really mean is Halloween 2013. Here are all of our activites for the second half of October crammed into one lightening-quick post:
We went to the Hickory Ridge Farm Pumpkin Patch to get a pumpkin or two. I had the girls each choose a smaller pie pumpkin, because I knew I would be cooking them down for baking.
We also rode the pony, walked the corn maze, ate kettle corn, played in the bounce houses, went for a hay ride, and played on a hay bale mountain. It was great for the girls, and I found myself wondering...why did we not do this until our last year in this area?
We had a Halloween dry run the weekend before the big night, and used it as an opportunity to get some stress-free photos and play in the leaves.
We Brandon and the girls Brandon carved the larger of our two pumpkins while I took pictures and the girls supervised. Elora at least tried pulling out some of the pumpkin guts, but Kaylie wouldn't touch it!!!
And finally, we went trick-or-treating with Lydia and Little James.
Brandon had to take a 3 day trip for the class he was taking, so he couldn't go with us. Rebekah and Big James were in Florida visiting family. We missed them, but holy cow, we had a great time anyway!!
See, super fast! Yes, I might have glossed over a few things, but you got the highlights. :)
