Pumpkin Patch 2017

We had our wonderful annual family trip to the pumpkin patch on Sunday October 7th.
The weather was beautiful! It was such a fun day to be with the people I love the most doing my most favorite fall activity! We went to Hunter Farms again this year and every year they have expanded more. We all got our wrest bands and headed in for a day of fun!
My fall cuties...
I love all the fun areas they have to take pictures.  They do such a good job of making it so beautiful!
The kids were so excited for the jumping pillow this time since last year it was closed for weather and when I took them back on Halloween they closed for the season earlier that day.  so that was our first stop of the day....

 Titi and I even jumped in or should I say jumped on....











 Papa and Dad were matching!
 We then hopped on board the dinosaur train.



 Then we walked out to the critters area.

 and feed the goats.

 My brother was nice enough to take a bunch of family pictures of us.  I wanted to put them up on my wall for fall but I don't think they came out very fallish.  Plus I don't like that we have wrist bands on lol!



 After pictures we headed into the corn maze.  The kids had a great time scaring us around every corner.

 Papa tried to have Carter try the corn.
 After our maze we went on Hay ride.
 How cute is this picture?
 After our ride dad took Carter over to do some shooting thing while we started picking out our pumpkins.They have such an amazing variety!


 and then it was time for a group picture.





 After the pumpkin patch we went to dinner at Red Robins.  It was so yummy and a nice way to end a great day!
 Nana got the kids some fun lolly pops!


Yay for the fall!! We could not be more excited!

Introducing the cast of..........

Inside Out!
I would have to say I think we did a pretty good job recreating one of our favorite movies!
 It was Aubrey's idea and we wanted to do something Disney since we will be in Disney World on Halloween.  We were just going to have the four of us but it worked out that Titi was coming out the weekend of the party and said that she would be sadness for us.  As for when we are in Disney World we just wont have a sadness which is okay because how can you be sad in the happiest place on Earth?  But we will miss her! She sure completes our group!
 Carter wanted me to paint his face with an angry mouth since he said that it would be too hard to keep an angry face the entire time.
 Susan was hosting the party but I helped a little.  I found the scavenger hunt and I made the trophies.


 The scavenger hunt was so much fun! We drove around looking for Halloween decorations.
 We ended up at Raley's for most of the things on the list.  Like a trick or treat bucket...
 We also got lots of videos that we needed there like saying "who you going to call" to stranger and hope that they say Ghost busters back.  We also had to take a toll on people's favorite candy.  We had to buy a bag of candy and give it out to strangers.  Also buy candy corns and write trick or treat and have some one eat all the candy corns. 
It was SUPER fun! I love the video I have of Carter hauling at the moon for 30 sec.  and the one of Titi on a broom saying "I will catch you my pretty and your little dog too." It was a lot of fun!!
 After the hunt we went back to Susan's for a party with treats and friends.



 We won for best family costume.  Carter also won for scariest costume but we gave it to Payton since we didn't want to win everything.


 After the party we went to Pizza (there was hardly any food at the party!) 
 and then back home for some more pictures. 
 The kids love the part in the movie that Joy drags Sadness and had been asking us to recreate it the entire night! Titi is such a trooper!

 It was a great night! We got the kids down for bed and then watched a mystery movie.  What a great day!
Sunday we woke up and took a nice fall wall.
Then met up with the rest of the family at the Pumpkin Patch....
