Countdown to Halloween

On Saturday we headed up to Suisun with my parents, the Roberts family, Taki's mom, and the Knights to ride a train out to a pumpkin patch.

This year's lineup - Kira as Tinkerbell, Olive as Eeyore, Maile as Wendy, Mason as Peter Pan and Nikos as Donald Duck.

The cast of Peter Pan is wary of the new addition (Brayden Knight) while Donald looks comatose.

On the train on the way to the pumpkins.
The kids talk Grammy into investigating the tunnels under the giant hay bales.

They then crawled out a teeny hole and made poor Grammy follow.

Having fun with the hay.

Mason as Donald in 2007 (he was almost 2.)

For fun, here's Nikos wearing the same costume in 2007 (she's 7.5 months, he was 4.5.)

Donald takes a breather.

Uh oh. The Duck spots a bouncy house and gets his tail feathers in a bunch trying to get over there. Once he arrives in front of the jumpy house he demands I "take his Donald off."

After the hay bales and the bumpy house we went on a hayride.

Olive and Taki stayed behind and relaxed.

Love the serious look on his face in this one.

And we end the day with...

Olive sleeping...

Brayden dancing...
Kira eating...

Happy almost Halloween!

You got some really great shots! I especially like the one of Brayden next to the 4 cousins (your comment is perfect)and the one of Olive in the pouch with her foot sticking out.

PS - how long will Olive fit in the pouch?! Surprised you don't have a Halloween themed one.

Good thing Mom is tiny, so she can fit out that hole with the kids! Great pics!
