Halloween Bash

Annual trip to the pumpkin patch with grandma Linda

The clouds looked like they were going to open up with a ton of rain at any minute but never quite got around to it.

Grandma Linda came out for the weekend and we all went to the pumpkin patch to pick out some Halloween pumpkins. Owen got to pet a baby cow and a baby goat and go for a ride in a wheel barrow.

They had some beautiful Clydesdale's on the farm and some of the best kettle corn I can remember having.

We woke up to about 5 inches of snow today... Crazy... It's only October

Snow? Seriously?!?!

Yep, it's October 4th, and we woke up this morning to a blanket of snow that hasn't stopped. One of the aspen trees in our front yard was bent over so far it was touching the ground, and our neighbor's apple tree fell over and got uprooted--I guess it's too early for the plants too, since none had lost their leaves yet and our yard is not looking like it was ready for winter! I did pick all of our close-to-done tomatoes earlier this week, but the rest of the garden is frozen! Owen loved it though!

The back deck when Owen and I came downstairs this morning...those ski-chair arms now have a good 4-5 inches on them!
