One of our many fun Halloween festivities also included visiting a pumpkin patch with my nephew's preschool. For $5 a kid, they got to go on rides, pet and feed a goat, jump houses and slides, plus they got a small pumpkin, bottle of water, and fun coloring and activity pages! I couldn't pass that up! The kids loved it! Thanks for the invite Lesley!
There's a story behind this picture. Gavin climbed to the top of the slide all by himself. It took him so long and everybody was passing him by, but he did it all by himself. Then, right at the very last step, some kid climbs right over him, knocking him to the middle and hanging on for dear life! Hallie jumped to his rescue, but she only weighs 5 or 6 pounds more than him and couldn't get him up! So I threw my shoes off, ran up the ladder, grabbed Gavin and went down the slide with him! I couldn't let him not make it, especially when he worked so hard to get that far!

Hallie would like to own the goat!

Gavin and my nephew Brayden. They weren't so sure about this spinning, teacup-like ride! I think they preferred the swings!

They finished off with a "train" ride. Who doesn't love a train!

Hallie and her friend Aviana found this little hideaway. It made for the perfect pumpkin patch picture!

One other plus of the day was that the kids were given a coloring picture to color and bring back for a free ride. So another day they both colored their picture and we went back for another ride. They knew it was just one ride, but a nice lady handed Chad extra tickets, so they got to do another ride! So nice!
Now to post costume pics...
