Halloween 2009








We made our traditional trip to the pumpkin patch yesterday. It was a beautiful day, which have been hard to come by lately. In fact earlier in the week we had a couple of inches of snow and Dustin made his first snowman.

Dustin picked a pumpkin right away and spent the rest of the time fascinated by the dirt! Katelyn fell in love "at first sight" with her pumpkin which of course weighed more than Dustin. Lauren finally picked her pumpkin after picking and discarding about 30 pumpkins. Whitney wanted to see if the electrical fence surrounding the patch was turned on so she touched it. Yes, it was turned on! She said it shocked her, but thank goodness it didn't cause her to go into cardiac arrest. So then all the other kids, including Todd had to touch it too. Monkey see, monkey do.
