Happy Halloween!

Happy Halloween! It feels like we've been celebrating Halloween for days now - our neighborhood party on Friday and the Halloween Party at church last night. I'll be glad when it's all over and the candy is all gone!

Pumpkin Patch-ing

On a beautiful fall day, we headed to a farm in Snohomish for an afternoon of corn mazing, pumpking patching, mini-golfing and farm fun!


Megan loved mini-golf! She hauled around her putter, picked up every ball she could find (even if it wasn't her ball), and threw it in the hole! She thought she was helping! It was the funniest thing to watch!

Jared got the hang of it too.

Cameron - look Mom! I made it!

Ryan tried a different approach.

The corn maze was in the shape of Washington state. So we set off in search of important places like Spokane, the Grand Coulee Dam and...

Duvall!

We made it out! The exit was at Grays Harbor.

Our visit wasn't complete without a stop at the pumpkin patch.
There were other fun things at the farm, including a petting zoo, a playground, a hay maze and a HUGE bin filled with dried corn that the kids (and adults) could play in. (Several of the kids came home with dried corn in pockets, underwear and socks.!) It was a great afternoon!
