pumpkin picking, pumpkin carving, and halloween!


xavier had his first halloween this year! obviously. im pretty sure that he had a lot of fun with everything!

monday - 10.25.10

after my sisters got home from school this day we ate dinner and then headed to apple charlies. apple charlies is a cider mill which also had a pumpkin patch and some farm animals to see.

we picked out our pumpkins first. xavier just LOVED the pumpkin patch. he couldnt stop looking at everything! it was so cute! i could tell he was excited. i sat him down so i could get some photos of him with pumpkins and it took so long and so much effort to get him to look at me, he really wanted to eat the pumpkins! which it didnt happen until i gave up for a bit and then went back to trying to get one of him. then i got this photo:



i was sooo happy with the way it turned out, even though its a bit blurry. the same thing happened when i tried getting one of me and him. he just wouldnt look! and finally i got a cute one:

after we picked out pumpkins we headed over to the mill and got some apple cider and donuts to take home with us. then we went to the animals where we got to look at chickens, deer, a bull, an ostrich, some pigs, and some goats and i think a llama. it was pretty cool. xavier liked them all:

you can tell he is smiling in this one!



i like this photo too:

we weighed our pumpkins and then headed out. i was glad i took him to the pumpkin patch for his first halloween! he really enjoyed it!

saturday - 10.30.10

sunday - 10.31.10 - halloween!

we went to church in the morning and then out to breakfast. when we came home we kind of hung out and i fed xavier some food. i wanted to get him the "my first halloween" onesie but by the time i got to get it they were all out but had the bibs. so i got that and it works! he is so happy on halloween!

so happy!

 at around 4:30 we headed out to my grandparents house. we always went trick or treating there growing up and i wanted xavier to have that experience for his first. it was really fun but he didnt last long. he fell asleep after 1 block! but boy was he cute!!!!!!
