Halloween Fun

  • Fox Hollow Farm, October 8th
A delightful little farm that we all fell in love.  We saw lots of animals including horses, pigs, rabbits, goats, mules, and cats.  We even saw some salmon swimming up stream in the creek.  Both boys also got to ride a pony!

Trevor loved sliding down the bouncy house slide.
Meanwhile, Austin was having his own fun on the "roller coaster".
Trevor was so excited to ride a pony.

Since the line was long, Austin and Grandpa went to look at the ducks and geese.

A trip to Fox Hollow Farm made for a very special birthday weekend for my Grandma Kay.

  • Thomasson Family Farm, October 12th
Trevor's preschool took a trip to another farm and pumpkin patch.  We went on a hayride, rode tricycles, played in the corn, saw the animals (cows, goats, pigs, dogs and rabbits), and picked out the perfect pumpkins.

  • Pumpkin Painting and Carving, October 26th
This year we decided to let the boys paint their pumpkins instead of carving them.  That way I could turn them into pumpkin pie after Halloween.  Both boys got in on the action and had a lot of fun.





We also had a larger family pumpkin that was carved.  Darren and Trevor removed the guts and I carved it after the boys went to bed.

  • Trunk or Treat and Costume Awards, October  28th & 31st
This year Trevor wanted to be Scooby-doo and it was easy enough to turn the rest of us into the Mystery, Inc. Gang.  Darren even died his hair blonde for the occasion. On Halloween, we entered into a costume contest and we won Best Group and a $25 gift certificate!

Happy Halloween Everyone!
