A Visit From Grandma

Grandma Lynn came to see us a couple of weekends ago.  Cody and I had a wedding reception to attend on October 24th so she was nice enough to make the drive out here and watch the boys for us while we went on a date!  Of course, we still managed to pack a lot of fun activities into the weekend!  First up, Daddy, Grandma, and Owen went to Mariposa (a State Park close to our town) for a Hallooween Hike on Friday night.  It was cold and muddy so we thought it was best that Cameron and I skip out on this one.  But Owen had a ball!!!  They had a bonfire, roasted marshmallows, drew on little pumpkins, and went on a hike where they followed animal tracks! 






Notice Owen is sporting Grandma's glove.  Apparently his mitten was full of sticky marshmallow and Grandma was kind enough to give up her glove.





Cody didn't get a lot of pictures at the hike because it was so dark out there!  Next up, we headed to Owen's soccer game on Saturday morning.  Grandma was so excited to get to see Owen play.  He did pretty well but we're still not sure that soccer is really going to be his "thing."






Cameron sat on my lap for most of the game.  He was content to do so as long as the Cheerios were plentiful and Mommy kept singing, "Thomas Roll Call." 

The fun didn't end here!  After the game we headed over to Grinnell to Carroll's Pumpkin Farm.  There were just too many good pictures from that visit so you'll have to wait for another post!  I promise the wait won't be nearly as long as it has been!  And don't worry, Auntie Gaye, Halloween photos are coming too!

It's about time! Looks like the state park was a fun outing! Hope we get to see our fireman and his dalmation before Thanksgiving! ;-)

Soccer sucks...no getting around that.
