Fall Family Fun

I love Fall. The changing leaves, the crisp cool air, all the family time and fun holidays. Yesterday, was the first day it actually felt like Fall though. The temperature finally dropped from the 100s to 68. It was fabulous. When Brady got home from work, we took Emerson in search of a pumpkin patch. I had my heart set on something like The Red Barn in Idaho Falls, but seeing as we live in Las Vegas, there were no such places to be found. We stopped by a carnival set up in the mall parking lot only to leave 3 minutes later when we realized Emerson was ONE inch too short for any of the rides and they would only let him ride the ferris wheel if Brady and I both rode with him for a grand total of $13...for a 90 second ride! I was feeling pretty discouraged, but then we happened upon this cute little place...Stu Miller's Pumpkin patch. It's no Red Barn, but it was pretty fun.

He won this at one of the games...he was so excited!
Picking out a pumpkin





They had a super cute little petting zoo with sheep, goats, chickens, bunnies, & ducks. He loved the baby goats - they were just his size :)




All in all, it was a really fun day as a family, and a great way to celebrate the season.
