Fall is in the Air

Last week I accompanied Landon on his first school field trip. We met up with his Wonder Kids Preschool classmates at the Sandy Fire Station where we were treated to a very interactive and entertaining puppy show. I was quit impressed with the fire safety knowledge Landon had learned in school prior to the field trip.

While at the fire house, Landon was pretty quiet which is normal and as soon as we were walking away he started rambling about how his friend Josh was there. It was just funny because he did not say a word to Josh the whole time.

Last week we took our friend Henry with us to the Hogle Zoo. I'm not really sure why, but we have not been to the zoo since last spring. I bought a pass and then did not go at all during the summer. I guess it goes to show how busy we were. We also met up with Sarah, Sean, Gracie and Isabel at the zoo.

After Lucas finished his soccer game last weekend, we picked up his friend Chase and headed to Wheeler Farm for the Pumpkin Festival. Although the three boys had a great time in the hay maze and on the wagon ride, I decided next year we will find a new place to go and pick out our pumpkins. In the past we were able to pull the pumpkins straight off the vine but this year they had huge boxes of little pumpkins that they placed in an open area that you went in and chose your pumpkin from. I was a little disappointed.

We always enjoy just walking around looking at the animals and playing on all the old tractors. Plus now they have a big playground that the kids spent more time on than anything.
