Pre-Halloween fun

So this week it went from still pretty dang hot to cold and rain all weekend, except for this one glorious Friday in between when it felt perfectly like fall! We were lucky to have a mom group meetup at the Idaho Botanical garden on the quintessential fall day. We spent 3 hours there, walking around, eating lunch, and Jilly got to go through the kids' corn maze and ring the big bell. There were also lots of cool themed scarecrows around, but this was our favorite - a real, working Mr. Potato Head! He has more appendages off to the side and they secure with heavy duty velcro. I LOVE this photo - and the fact that Jilly held his hand - that was all her!
Of course, running around and across all the little bridges is an activity in itself...


The day before was blazing warm and we are out at a local farm and pumpkin patch with Jillian's preschool class. We rode the hayride, picked out a pumpkin, played in a maze and of course enjoyed the preschooler highlight, popcorn and juice snack time! Disclaimer: we were not as red as we appear in this photo and we were both wearing sunscreen. :)

We put the finishing touches on our Tinkerbell today! One week 'til Trick or Treat!
