Bengtsons Pumpkin Patch

Grandpa and Grandma took us to Bengtsons Pumpkin Patch.  I worked there for a few years when I was in high school.  It was fun being back there and seeing how much it had changed.  It was a beautiful day!

The petting zoo had a lot of neat animals.  The boys had a great time feeding all of the animals.

We had a great time on the hayride!

Bartlett Fire Department

While we were up at my sister's house, their fire department had an open house.  They had so many neat things for the kids.  They did a demonstration with the Jaws of Life, other fun kid activities, food, and lots of fun things for the kids to take home.

Scarecrow Festival

 During our Fall Break, the boys and I went up to my parents and sister's house.  We visited the Scarecrow Festival in St. Charles and we built a scarecrow.  The kids loved playing in the straw and stuffing our scarecrow.
