After the pumpkin patch we went back to our house for an after party. As well as having hotdogs and a Jack-o-lantern shaped cupcake cake I had made some trick-or-treat bags out of white fabric and put in Elmer's Glue the words Trick-or-Treat. The kids then, covered in smocks I put together, painted with Acrylic Paints ( of which Sophia painted in her hair, and some how sprayed our antique hutch; we got it out thank goodness) ll over their bags. After the paint dried I soaked the bags in water which caused the glue to swell up and with Jane and Sarah's help we rubbed the glue off leaving the painting on the bags with the words "Trick-or-Treat" in white on them. They came out great and the kids loved them. They then got to pick out two pieces of ribbon, any color they liked, of the kind that I had pulled out, and I thread them through the hem to act as handles. It was great and a harvest tradition that would be nice to keep up.

(Oct 2011) (Needs Pics)Pumpkin Patch 2011
Wonderful pictures of a day at the Pumpkin Patch. We were able to share it with our good friend Jen Davis and her littler girl Mia, Jane, Jason, Sarah, Wayne, Greg, and Billy. The highlight were the two bouncy houses and the sun came out just in time for pictures.
