Great Country Farms was so fun for the kids. We met Mimi, Pop, Aunt Erin, Uncle Todd, and cousin Cedar there. River loved the giant balloon bounce to jump on and especially the hay wagon ride to the pumpkin patch. It was great for him to actually see that pumpkins do grow in pumpkin patches, come from the ground and not the grocery store. It was really cold that day but the weather made it feel that much more like Fall time! It was a great family memory. We carved one pumpkin and drilled holes in another. River names the pumpkins "Jake" and "Mimi."
For Halloween, we went to the church that my brothers attend with their families for a fun party designed especially for kids. They had so much to do and River could not wait to spend time with his beloved cousins! He must have asked me about the party 50+ times. So, he was more than thrilled when he finally got to dress up at Auntie and Uncle Chris' house with his cousins and then hit up the party. River was a green dragon that he picked out at "Old Navy" after trying on 3 costumes and looking at himself in the mirror. I could not believe he was just 3 acting much older. My Mom bought Mason's costume at a thrift store. The BEST $2.00 spent. I still laugh just when I think about him in this costume. I spent the whole night chasing Mason around and getting him off of the top of tables that he climbed on over and over again. As fun as this stage is, I had forgotten about how demanding and tiring it can be on MOMMY! We also enjoyed another hay wagon tractor ride at the party, this time in full costume. Enjoy the pictures.
