Football Game & Pumpkin Patch

Through Jason's work we got tickets to the UNLV vs. BYU football game. They had a tailgate party before. I didn't think we would last a quarter of the game, but the kids suprised me. Erick loved it. He as clapping and amazed at everything that was going on. The girls liked it too. Aubree's favorite part was the halftime show. They had a 500 girls from classes all over the valley do gymnastics, dancing and cheer. It was pretty cool to see. We had four tickets and everyone kept telling me we were crazy to take all the kids and not get a babysitter and double with another couple, but I wanted to share the experience with my kids. They haven't done many fun things like that. We had a good time.
There is a pumpkin patch just down the street from us. We went there last year and the kids remembered and wanted to do it again. So that's what we did for FHE. Aubree said those were the biggest pumpkins she had ever seen.

They had a petting zoo. This picture is of Erick with his arms out chasing the ducks. He had no fear!!

I cought a chicken and Alexa was holding it. She loved it and wasn't scared of anything either.
Aubree wasn't quite sure about the petting zoo. She's afraid of dogs so it didn't suprise us when she freaked out and wanted to get out.

Erick chilling on a pumpkin while the girls go on a fast ride.

This is the ride the girls' remembered from last year. Aubree loved it and Alexa freaked out last year because it went too fast. This year they both had a good time. Alexa said that she wouldn't cry now that's she's 3.

They had a big blow up slide that was fun (that comes first hand from someone who went on it, me!)

All the kids loved it!

The girls' headed up!
