Harvest Pumpkins

Megan is really enjoying her 1st grade year. She was able to go to her Harvest Carnival at school and really had a great time. We were able to pretty much play every game and hang out with some of her friends. I think it was fun for her to feel grown up and do fun stuff with her classmates.

We stayed for almost an hour and a half and did a few of the fun games twice. The most popular game was the strobe light boogie. They got to go on the stage that was curtained off and dark and dance around to music while a strobe light flashed and made it super fun for the kids. I'm glad I was able to take her again this year.

A few days later her whole 1st grade class got to go on a field trip to the pumpkin patch. It worked out just perfect that I was able to go as a helper parent. I think Megan really enjoyed her Mom getting a chance to be there. I seem to always be having to help with Andrew so this was a special treat just for her.

This was the same pumpkin patch that Andrew's preschool class visited last year. Megan was able to go with us so she was familiar with the place and knew what the tour was all about. It was a bit different this time going with 1st grade classmates rather than Andrew's preschool class. I think she enjoyed it alot more this year.

The highlight of the pumpkin patch trip I think for pretty much all the kids was the corn maze. They were running around in there for the bulk of the free time. An adult had to round them up to get them to come out for a quick snack before it was time to leave.

It was really nice to be able to go. It allowed me to go to each of my kids field trips and they both got to experience the pumpkin patch seperately from each other and had tons of fun.
