Pumpkin Patch

To escape the never-ending AZ heat we decided to visit a Pumpkin Patch near Prescott and invited our friends!  We had such a wonderful time and it was much cooler!!  And look who decided she likes petting zoos after all??

Stinker!

 It was so much more than a pumpkin patch!! They had fun rides!

 Tire horseys!

 Cheese!

 Jumpy trampolines!

 Real ponies!

 We hope they never grow too big to ride ponies!

 Face painting!

Corn dogs!

Games for kids...

...and adults.  Or so they turned them into races!

 Corn maze!

 We only got lost a few times!

And finally the pumpkin patch!

Ashley found hers right near the front! 

 She was determined to carry it herself!

 She checked out the rest of the patch but came back to her original one!

 Happy almost Halloween!

Everyone!!  What a great group of friends!

Not more than 5 minutes after leaving they were out!  Zzzzzzz

Nana and Papa Steve Visit

Nana Jeanne and Papa Steve came to watch the kids during our Vegas getaway.  Julie hooked them up with a thank you snack basket to help them out when the kids got to be too much.  

They sure stayed busy!  Nana surprised Trevor with being the mystery reader at school!

 

He was so surprised!

 And proud!!!

 They spent a lot of time reading at home too!

One day it rained and the kids loved playing in the rain!

 Papa usually put Trevor to bed and Nana put Ashley to bed!

 They went to the park!

 Played cards!

 Made cupcakes!

 Did his homework!

 Got new doll furniture!

 And a spirograph set for Trevor.  Funny that he took it to the trampoline to work on!

 Went to Gabriella's annual Halloween party!

 Nice costume T!  What are you??

 Played with babies!

 Attended Ashley's school Fall Carnival.  Apparently she wasn't a fan of that either!

Still not happy! 

 But wait, there is candy!  Score!

Turns out she was just really tired because not more than 5 seconds of getting in the car she was sleeping!

We ended our time with Nana and Papa with dinner at Isabella's Kitchen!  They loved it as much as we do.  So thankful for them coming down to spend time with the kids and us.  We love and appreciate you very much!!
