Pumpkin City 2008

Well Halloween is almost here and this year we began celebrating the season with our good friends Mark, JoJo and Anthony Grace. We met the Grace's when Michael was just 20 months old and had started going to Tutor Time. Their son Anthony became Michael's partner in crime and we have always enjoyed spending time with them. In fact when we moved to Oregon I was really sad to leave them all and when I found out we were moving back I was so excited to pick up where we left off.

So, we met them at Pumpkin City. Pumpkin City is a big fair held in the parking lot of Laguna Hills Mall each year. It's so much fun with carnival rides and lots of photo opportunities. Michael, Anthony, and Hayden all had a blast riding the rides and playing all the carnival games. When we left we all had an arm full of blow up toys the boys won and the kids were worn out.

In Oregon the pumpkin patches are a lot more traditional and actually "pumpkin Patches" but Pumpkin City is a lot of fun and someplace I enjoy taking the kids each year. Most of all it was fun to spend time with our good friends.
