Halloween II: Fun at the Pumpkin Patch

We went to two small pumpkin patches this year, one with "Mommy and Me" class and one with our friends the Brandons. It's less about purchasing pumpkins and more about feeling like it's fall (remember we live in one-season-weather) and having fun with the kids. I hope we can make this a yearly tradition...and that next year we won't let traffic dissuade us from going to a "real" pumpkin patch.

Climbing to the top of the slide...the little kid who went up first couldn't get over and caused Hamilton to slide all the way dooooown the ladder. Poor guy. I attribute that to the fact that Hamilton refused to go down the slide once he was at the top. Ok, and it was also pretty high up and steep.

A contemplative moment in the bounce house...

At pumpkin patch #2, which was in a mall parking lot, seriously. We're city folk, ok?

Helicopter ride with Kieran (so glad they made it off these rides alive!)

Driving his own car...and it's even green, his favorite color. Bliss, baby.
