Pumpkin Patch

We went to Anoka County Farms pumpkin patch a few nights ago, and it was totally LAME! There wasn't anything to do except buy pumpkins...which by the way were .45 cents/lb...We chose this specific pumpkin patch because they their website said they had Pony rides. When we got there we were told that there were no Pony rides on weekdays..so it was pretty much a flop. Landon still had fun but next year we'll stick with what we know: Poppe Pumpkin Patch.

Fall

With October being the coldest on record so far, I figured I'd better get some fall pictures before the decorations get burried in snow.

Last day of Summer..

Landon and his buddy Keegan said farewell to summer with one last fudge pop on the deck...

Mr. Volleyball

Here are a few shots of Casey in action w/ his B Squad Volleyball team. They are 4-2 right now, but he has the best team of 9-12th graders in Cambridge...I do know one thing: watching volleyball is a nice change from wrestling..

Summer Fun on the Slip N Slide

Jake and Landon got out the Slip N Slide last night to cool off from the hot temps. Since it didn't seem dangerous enough, they decided to put a pool at the end and push Landon down the slide on a huge Shark so he'd flip into the pool at the end. Only one minor injury, other than that he loved flopping around and flying into the pool.

Clifford Park

Landon's favorite park is Clifford Park in Isanti. Last weekend we let him invite a friend to go with him and thy had a blast climbing walls, chasing each other around, and completing obstacle courses that they made up.

Mini Majors

Just when I thought Casey's 7th grade softball team was the worst I'd ever seen, I signed Landon up for Mini Majors and saw a bunch of 3 and 4 year olds running around w/ their heads cut off...Only difference, it was fun to watch Landon and his friends run around having no idea what was going on! Two of his best buddies were on his team and they loved goofing off together (weird since I was so serious about everything when I was a kid..).
