Fun over Halloween

So I wanted to blog a little about some of the halloween activites the Horton family participated in. A little bit before halloween Sherri, Crissy and I all took the grandkids to a pumpkin patch for some fun.

There was a hay maze where Emily and Hannah played for a while. It was really cute trying to spot their heads over the little hay walls. Allyson had fun too running around trying to keep up with the big girls.

Ethan and Lillian were the passive ones but they had fun. Especially Ethan when he got to ride in the wagon with the pumpkins.

Emily pulled the girls in the cart and had fun being the oldest. Hannah wasn't good the whole time and had to sit in time out on one of the pumpkins.

Later on in the week Nate, Crissy, Ethan, Dan, I and the girls went to "Boo at the Zoo" at the Hogle Zoo. It was quite fun until the kids got tired. But they had fun watching the animals and playing gopher near the play area.

The kids were in their costumes and got to get candy from tables all around the zoo. Parking was a mess and there were tons of people there, but I would probably still do it again. It's a fun memory and was a great way to spend time with family.

Sledding and food

So I know I sent out an email about this, but just in case people aren't checking email and checking the blog instead I thought I would list the info on here as well. We are planning (weather permitting) to go sledding somewhere around Joseph and Amy's house on Saturday morning around 10:00am. There will be a potluck lunch afterwards at Curt and Susan's house. Bring something warm to share. Please come if you can and bring sleds if you have them. It would be really fun to get together and do something active.
