Yesterday, Austin's daycare hosted a Halloween/Fall Festival at his school. We went and Austin rode in a little train and seemed to really enjoy everything. He participated in a Halloween costume contest as well. The winner would win a free week of daycare. He came in second for his age group. We, of course, are biased but he should have won. Just this experience made me realize that I am so glad we don't participate in pagents, etc. Here are a couple pictures from that festival:

We even had the Pope show up!
Then today we visited the Washington Farms Pumpkin Patch. Austin had a really fun time. We got to see different farm animals, slide down a PVC pipe slide, go through a little hay maze, ride another little 'train', had a hayride, and of course picked out and played with pumpkins! Here are a few pics from that:

'I want THIS pumpkin!'

Of course we put all of these pictures plus more of them up on our Flickr site.
