Trick or Treat!

The pink cat and the little lady bug, ready for their first night of Trick or Treat!


The little lady bug looked a little confused at first - she wasn't sure why she was wearing a big black hood and carrying a pumpkin bucket. The pink cat and the little lady bug joined two silly cows at Nana's work to be cute and get lots of candy.

After scoring a large amount of chocolate, there is nothing better to wash the chocolate down with than your first ever juice box.

The little lady bug and the little cow, taking a break from the festivities.

Two nights later, it was time to join the neighbors for another fun night of begging for candy.

The babies had a sweet ride!

Claire is ready for some candy!

Can we please stop taking photos and do some Trick or Treating??
Hmmm. Which house was handing out beer?

It's Official!

The photo is in - I am officially a kindergartener now!


Pumpkin Chunkin

Once again we ventured to the Oregon Dairy for some good ol' Lancaster County autumn fun. This was the first time that Claire could pick out her own pumpkin.

First rule of pumpkin pickin' - try to pick a pumpkin smaller than you!

This one was more her size :)

Second rule of pumpkin pickin' - lift with your legs, not your back

Third rule of pumpkin pickin' - quickly try to find Daddy so he can carry your pumpkin :)


Once you have chosen the perfect pumpkin, sit on a hay bale for the required photo for Mommy (try not to fall off of the bale)

Proceed to the crowd gathered around the crazy guy with the pumpkin chucker.

Hand the crazy pumpkin guy a huge pumpkin, pull the lever and watch your pumpkin soar through the air!


After watching everyone try to hit the wagon half a mile away with their pumpkin, it's time to play with some corn!

Playing with corn is almost as fun as eating it!!!

Time to make the pumpkins look pretty!

Ta da!! Another great Family Fun Harvest Day at the Oregon Dairy!


Pumpkin Cookin'

To help welcome the Halloween season, Drew and Reed came over to bake Halloween brownies. We each got to pick our own shape, and surprisingly we didn't argue about it! Drew chose the pumpkin and I chose the cat. After a few leg amputations of the poor kitty brownies, it was time to decorate!

Our hard work paid off!

They looked almost too good to eat. Almost - they were Halloweenicious!

Good enough for the cover of Martha Stewart Living?! :)
