October Outings and Oddities

We enjoyed a bunch of fun things in October.
If you zoom in you can see the turkeys crossing the parking lot, we see groups of wild turkeys quite a bit, especially funny right before Thanksgiving.
Kate had to go with me to get my TB tests done at a nearby hospital but we found the cool kid area for the Sacramento Kings fans (The NBA team we have adopted until we get the Sonics back)

Since Jaydon and Lucy were heading back from WA by camping their way down with Gma and Gram, Kate and I needed to do some fun things together. I took her to Funderland (a kid amusement park) and we had a blast.



She loved the rides, we went on so many together I got tired but she could have kept going for hours more!

The fun Fall Festival that our kids school put on. It was a great outing and I neglected to get many pics.


Lucy won a round at the cake walk, she is totally my girl. She picked the biggest one left!
Kate and I played Hiss (an amazing game with preschool and lower elementary age kids), she had the big pile, I had the small pile and the leftover cards had two snake heads and tails - super rare!
The kids soccer buttons that they got. At some point I will try posting their team pics but no guarantees I will remember because I have to take a pic of the pic.
Took the girls to a local trunk or treat event at our nearby auto-mall, Jaydon chose to stay home and watch football (shocker).

I was able to chaperone Kate's first school bus field trip. She had a wonderful time at the pumpkin patch.

She loved the petting zoo time.

October Outings

Applehill Adventures
 
We took Granny with us out to Applehill (a conglomerate of over 50 farms that put on fall festivities). Pony rides, crafts, yummy treats, hay/corn mazes, panning for gold and hiking were enjoyed.















 The Great Pumpkin Festival

The biggest event of the year that our city hosts is the Great Pumpkin Festival, we took a day to go see all the sites and partake in some fun fall activities
Kate wanted to do the pumpkin launch
 The kids enjoyed a couple rides



 The petting zoo was a big hit





 Lots of pictures and fun in the fall (which still felt a bit like summer).





Kate's pumpkin patch field trip
I got to take Kate on her school field trip. We had a fun day at the farm
