Halloween Fun!

Halloween is not one of my more adored holidays. In fact, I get down right irritable about spending money over a pagan celebration. Trying not to think about coming up with costumes for each of the kids, I decided we would do something new. So, we went to the Southridge Farms pumpkin patch. We rode the tractor pulled wagon down to the pumpkin patch and each of the kids picked out their own pumpkin. The babies were quite content as I discreetly (I hope) fed them both on the wagon ride.
The boys enjoyed getting up on the tractor.
We enjoyed some delicious fudge, apple butter, cameo apples and cider. So yummy! I hear we missed the best part- the ice cream. We will have to return for that!
It was nice to take a few days to carve the pumpkins. I am tired of cramming in all the festivities into 24 hours.

I'm sad we missed the farm fun! That apple butter is de-lish, thanks for bringing some to us. The kidlets are cute all dressed up! It reminds me of when we used to go Trick-or-Treating with ya'll...
