We had fun painting our pumpkins early in the month, but sadly daddy was too busy with work to join in the fun this year!
We made it to Pride of the Wapsi for our annual pumpkin patch trip! It was crazy hot and we had to wait in line for a ridiculously long amount of time just to get in, but we still had a good time once we were inside. As always, the favorites for the kids were the slides and the barrel train. Zach loved the corn crib but wouldn't really let me take any good pictures. My favorite, as always, was the yummy kettle corn!
As mentioned earlier, I was in charge of the Ward Trunk or Treat this year and although it was a bit stressful, I think it turned out really well! We had a great showing and the Nacho Bar was a hit! Katie was sick with the pukes and Zach was dealing with pink eye so only Colton was able to come to the Trunk or Treat with me. We were sad not to have the whole family with us and Katie was pretty sad to miss the candy, but Colton was a good big brother and offered to bring her pumpkin around with him so she would have some treats when she felt better.
Thankfully everyone was feeling better by the actual Halloween. The whole family dressed up this year. Jon and I went as Anna and Hans, Colton was bat (in my first homemade Halloween costume), Katie went as Shimmer (a genie from Nick Junior show Shimmer and Shine), and Zach was a monkey. We walked around the neighborhood together and got a good load of candy. It was a bit chilly but we all had fun!
