Cal Poly Pumpkin Patch

This is an annual tradition for us...going to the Cal Poly Pumpkin Patch.  We bring the wagon and get the largest pumpkins we can find!  Dad always tries to get the biggest one!  This year, they also had many gourds and unique shaped pumpkins.  So, we got one of each!!

Happy Halloween at Trunk or Treat

Here are more pictures of our Halloween weekend. We hung out with our friends and had a blast!   We played lots of games and each won a goldfish!  We also climbed a rockwall.  Dad even won a cake in the Cake Walk booth!  Then, after we got home, we went trick or treating around our neighborhood.  Needless to say, we came home with tons of candy!!!
