We did go trick-or-treating

The kids had fun trick-or-treating in Astoria.
(well...Carter wasn't exactly thrilled about the huge crowds, but he warmed up to it by the end)

The Pumpkin Patch aka Sauvie Island

The Saturday before Halloween, we went to Sauvie Island "The Pumpkin Patch" as a family.
The kids had a great time.Fischer is such a cute farmer boy.

On the hay ride to the pumpkins. Alexis felt like she was going to fall off....so she held on to Clinton the whole time. It was really muddy, very big ruts for the tractor to drive through.

Carter picked a great little pumpkin (only $1).
Tons and tons of pumpkins...nearly as far as the eye could see.

They had fun climbing all over this.

Haunted House

Here is our attempt at making a haunted house.

Thanks for the fun, Aunt Amy and Uncle Andrew!

Pumpkin Visit

We went to the pumpkin patch in Idaho!

This is the pumpkin we picked.

So many different varieties of pumpkins and squash to see. Incredible.

The whole group on hay bales for a picture.

our friends Amy, Bryan, Isaac, and Gracie invited us to go with them...thanks!
