Jaker's Pumpkin Patch

 It's Columbus Day and I had a paid day off. How terrific is that? Working for the government has its perks. Because it is October, and just for fun too, we joined the DeMartinis and Johnsens and went to Jaker's to play in the corn, climb on hay, and have a hay ride. It was sunny and beautiful, warmer than normal for this time of year, and we had a great time. We chased and lost a couple of small people, but found them and got a bit of exercise in the process. It was fun, as always, to be together.











Generally speaking, I like to get a family picture in the corn.
This year, I couldn't round up my two (only) people when we were by corn, so I am out of luck.


Cute big girls and cute little girls.

More cute big girls and little girl.

This slide looks like it should be fast. 
It's not.
I scooted down suuuuuuper slowly.















It was Ava (14) and Collin (10)'s birthdays on Saturday, so after being at Jaker's, we went over to Eugene and Sharae's house for a birthday party. We had pizza and crunchies, cupcakes and cookies, and the taller people played 9 Square, a game where you try to get to the middle of the nine squares, become King, and stay there as long as possible. The idea is to keep a ball aloft without it coming down in your square. It was great fun, we played a long time, and only quit when it got dark and homework called loudly enough we couldn't ignore it anymore. It was a great time!
