Pumpkin Patches and Halloween

Since Thanksgiving is on Thursday I thought I should post about Halloween.  This post will be a combination of all of our Fall/Halloween festivities.  We had a busy few weeks and enjoyed it all.

The Sunday before Halloween our church had a Fall Festival/Trunk or Treat.  The kids were very excited to wear their costumes.  Hadley was Pocahontas, Jillian was Minnie Mouse and Trenton was a pumpkin.  We had a little photo shoot before we left for the party.

The week before Halloween, Jillian's class took a field trip to a local church's pumpkin patch.  Trenton and I went as well.  It was a fun time with lots of pumpkins and playing.

Jumping off of the hay bales was a big hit.

She didn't want to get very close to the scarecrow.

Time to pick a pumpkin to take home.

During Fall break we took a trip to one of our favorite pumpkin patches, Livesay Orchards.  We met Jill and her kids there.  We had a great time even though it was the windiest day of the year.

On Halloween Hadley's class had a Fall Party.  Jillian, Trenton and I joined in on the fun.  They had crafts, games, cooking making and pizza for lunch.

The day before Halloween, Jillian's class had a Fall Festival.  Trenton and I joined her class during their time.  Jillian really enjoyed the bouncy house and pumpkin bowling.  They also had a costume parade.

October was a fun and busy month!
